© 2026 Onward State

Last night was one of the worst moments of my entire life. But before I can explain what happened, you need to know a bit about Onward State.
Earlier this evening, Onward State reported that Joe Paterno had passed away; however, the mountain of evidence stacked opposite that report became too much to ignore. At this time, I would like to issue a retraction of our earlier tweets.

Please excuse the interruption. We'll get back to your regularly scheduled content in a moment. Consider this a shameless plug, the equivalent of an NPR pledge drive but without Prairie Home Companion to entertain you. Instead, you've got this.

Have you ever wanted to get involved with Onward State? Here's your chance!

As you settle in to your second and third helpings of Christmas dinner (or Chinese food) and your Christmas movie of choice, Onward State would like to wish you a happy holiday.
May your time spent with your family be reinvigorating, and may your joy far exceed that of the Onward State staff in this picture!
