Graham Spanier’s gig as a federal employee?

Graham Spanier's gig as a federal worker is a mystery
Published on Washington Post | shared via feedly

Graham Spanier might have been ousted from his post at the helm of Penn State over the sex-abuse scandal that engulfed the university, but it seems he's found a backup employer: the American taxpayer. 


Only a disgraced public figure would consider joining the much-maligned ranks of the federal workforce as a step up, reputation-wise. We can assume there were no openings for a used-car salesman.

Spanier was faulted in an internal Penn State report after the conviction on child-molestation charges of former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky. The report said he, head coach Joe Paterno and others helped cover up Sandusky's abuse.

His lawyer confirms to the Loop that Spanier is working on a part-time consulting basis for a "top-secret" agency on national security issues. But the gig is so hush-hush, he couldn't even tell his attorneys the name of the agency.
 Get the original.

Folks I talk to indicate that Spanier isn't actually working for the US Government but is instead working for a contractor.

But who knows? This is the Obama Administration and what can you put past that bunch?
