I wouldn't call it sweeping it under the rug. They announced what Rice had done back in December and announced corrective actions. After seeing the tapes Rice should have been fired on the spot, but in no way was there a cover up of this situation.

If I were Pernetti I would have released the tapes myself (first rule of damage control, get the story out yourself and you control the narrative) and I would have fired Rice for cause. Pernetti bungled this no doubt, but I think he did so largely in a well intentioned manner.
