Michigan State is “deeply sorry” for the 40-foot-tall (my quick estimate) picture of a certain WWII-era genocidal dictator on the gigantic digital scoreboard at Spartan Stadium during Saturday night’s football game against Michigan University.
The picture showed up during a pre-game pop quiz the school may have been streaming from a YouTube channel. The channel’s owner commented today that they weren’t aware the school was using their content, calling it “unsolicited and unauthorized use.”
According to The Washington Post, associate athletic director Matt Larson said it was “inappropriate content by a third-party source,” and the school promises to better vet content for the screen going forward.
Update October 22nd, 3:12PM ET: Added comment from TheQuizChannel owner.
