President Barack Obama believes that, if the Penn State child sex-abuse allegations are true, then "what happened is outrageous," said a White House spokesman.
"The president's thoughts and prayers, and all our thoughts and prayers, are with the victims of the abuse and the family members of those victims."
"...what I can say is that if the allegations of what happened up there prove true, what happened is outrageous," Presidential press secretary Jay Carney said.
The White House refused to comment in detail on the decisions made to fire longtime football coach Joe Paterno and President Graham Spanier. Both were fired by the Penn State Board of Trustees on Wednesday.
Obama and the White House made no comment on the Penn State student riots from Wednesday night.
