George Clooney's documentary was released on June 17, 2025 and we heard nothing

I am not sure if this was already posted because I have been busy and not on DU as much lately. In case it has not or others missed it, the documentary is called "Surviving Ohio State". I did a google search on where to watch but I am in Canada so it might be different for you but this is what came up:

Surviving Ohio State, a documentary movie is available to stream now. Watch it on Max, Sling TV - Live Sports, News, Shows + Freestream, The Roku Channel, Sling TV - Live Sports, News, Shows + Freestream, DIRECTV, DIRECTV or Sling TV - Live Sports, News, Shows + Freestream on your Roku device.

An ethics investigation on Gym. After we are done with Soros and his cash.
I did not know I could hate Gym more. Then I watched that documentary. Always a self serving liar. GQP perfected the lie. A God approves.
Podium Barbie is one suck fake Christ clown.
The head coach is just as guilty.
And the assaults were much deeper than wrestling.
Wonder if the same hangman took out that doctor as did the child raper, Donnie’s BFF. And were they behind the Hang Pence brigade.
This racist GQP still love hanging their enemies.

The focus was not directly on Gym. He is in it, but not the main 'bad guy', that was more pointed at Ohio State Administration.

I don't want to be a conspiracy theorist, but it seemed like hiding the ball.
It may have been a glitch, as it's now listed as "Surviving Ohio State".

It's a devastating examination of Ohio State turning a blind eye on a known sexual predator and the damage the man caused in the process to hundreds, if not thousands of young male athletes. The abuse went on for decades and school authorities ignored or poo-poohed any complaints. The only coach to raise persistent complaints was the fencing coach, a woman. She knew something was off but was stonewalled at every turn. Finally, Dr. Richard Strauss begged off treating the fencing teams but was allowed to continue to treat all the other university sports teams. He was even promoted.

Incredible!

The authorities knew, the coaches knew, everyone with half a brain knew but were unwilling to blow the whistle because of the scandal they knew would ensue.

Btw, Jim Jordan, who at the time was an assistant wrestling coach, comes off looking and sounding like a weasel and coward.
