Of course,the Big Ten Network isn't working out the way that Penn State had hoped. Comcast, which is the regions largest cable provider, won't be carrying the network because of a disagreement with the BTN over whether the network is included in the extend basic package or the sports tier.

Oh please....what location would you prefer them to communicate - Sheetz, Jiffy Lube, K-mart or Bob's House. It's business, not hypocrisy and if you think it's not, you're naive. Have a beer and enjoy the game.
We Are .... Penn State
guy, it is hypocrisy which according to Merriam-Websters is: a feigning to be what one is not or to believe what one does not; especially : the false assumption of an appearance of virtue or religion
Penn State and the BTN claims that the Network will not promote alcohol consumption, because it goes against a Penn State value, and then Penn State turns around and publishes a list of bars where one can watch the game. That is a textbook example of hypocrisy.
You may believe that hypocrisy is the essence of business, I won't argue that point with you, but it does not change the fact that Penn State is hypocritical. By the way, if one cannot conduct business without engaging in hypocrisy, then there is one more reason to add to a very long list of reasons of why a university should not be run like a business.
As to alternative locations, you lack imagination. Certainly,Penn State could show the game on big screens in the HUB and Schwab, for example, and the same could be done at auditoriums at branch campuses throughout the commonwealth.
