I'll have to look for it but I DISTINCTLY REMEMBER Kutcher tweeting some stupid shit about people having "no class" when Joe Paterno was 'let go'/fired because of what a great guy Paterno had always been and how dare anyone sully his good name and legendary coaching career, or something along those lines.
After ppl responded angrily and mentioned the pedo cases, he sheepishly backed down.
Back when it happened I wrote it off to just another celebrity being stupid and unaware of real life.
Anyway, my point was more that a celebrity who was using his name as well as his wife's name to start an NGO/charity based solely on spreading the word about the evils of Human Trafficking, how to watch for it, protect yourself and your loved ones from falling victim to it and most of all, claiming to want to stop it was completely unaware of a rather large child sexual abuse scandal and took to Twitter to bloviate.
The fact that he somehow heard that Paterno was fired but hadn't heard why or that a HUGE story of children being sexually assaulted and abused involving Penn State coaching staff is BULLSHITTERY.
I don't know of anyone else, whether celebrity, athletes or 'regular' folks, who heard about Joe Paterno getting fired but somehow missed the scandal.
As others have pointed out, after the blowback towards Kutcher happened, he apologized and "quit Twitter", promising to have his staff or publicist post for him from then on.

Ok. Are you saying it didn't happen or that the picture is of a different account that is quoting Ashton Kutcher and what he tweeted re; Joe Paterno?
Here are several of the many stories that reported on it.
