Photos of Grambling facilities emerge
If you were looking for proof that Grambling State football team’s recent rebellion against the school administration was on legitimate grounds, The Gramblinite — “A consistent, proven, award-winning news outlet for Grambling State University and the town of Grambling, La.” — has provided disconcerting photographic evidence of such.

Here are the photos that the outlet’s Twitter feed recently posted:

Just compounding the problem, the school fired the paper’s editor, David Lankster Sr., and placed The Gramblinite’s opinions page editor on a two-week suspension.

“[Will] Sutton [Grambling’s Director of Public Relations and Communications] was trying to mute our voice because we were tweeting the real news, the truth about what was going on,” Lankster told allDigitocracy on Sunday.
It’s no longer a matter of if heads are going to roll within the Grambling State administration but when.
