Report: Joe Paterno Addresses Media Out His Window

According to a tweet from Ben Jones, who covers Penn State football for BlackShoeDiaries.com, Penn State head coach Joe Paterno is tearfully addressing the media out his window.  Jones writes:

Paterno holding a press conference out his window in tears. "No matter what happens to some people Im proud of you"

These are some of Paterno's first public comments regarding the sexual abuse scandal that has rocked the university.  Paterno's scheduled media availability today was canceled; Jones reports that Paterno's son Scott told the media outside his house, "We will have a statement in the next day or two."

Jones included this picture of Paterno in his home:
