The OJ Simpsonfication of Tiger Woods

[CatWoman]

it's all Tiger, all the time.

Even on so called "political" shows.

:eyes:

1. He's an interesting guy, so the event is being covered.

It'll die down soon enough. It's not like he killed a couple of people.

:D

[CatWoman]

3. SQUIRREL!!

I see you updated your pic :hi:

[Blue-Jay]

13. Credit where it's due...

Being an all-around awesome guy, Call Me Wesley helped me out with the update. I'm not very good with PhotoShop, aside from the occasional headswap.

[Bluebear]

5. OMG!!

Novo-Squirrel!

2. With the exception of sports coverage on whether or not the accident would effect his golf game

I think this is a non-story.

[northzax]

16. A non story?

I see a fairly obvious case of marital violence here. If the tables were turned, and his wife had been in a 2:30 am minor crash with injuries and windows knocked out by golf clubs, people would be screaming for his head.

4. Something about the wife's story is puzzling.

She just happened to have a golf club in her hand a few hundred feet from her house at 2 in the morning after "hearing" her husband's accident?

[madinmaryland]

15. Considering Tiger Woods is a pro golfer and probably has several thousand golf clubs,

it doesn't seem surprising to me.

[louis-t]

27. I understand that. He was a long way from the garage

or the house where the golf clubs would be located. She would have either brought the club with her, or had to go back to the house to get a club and back to the car. I don't know how far a distance that is. I do have photos of his house but don't know how long his driveway is or how far down the street he was. And if you say "maybe he had them in the car" I'm gonna be disappointed. :silly:

[northzax]

18. And he was knocked unconcious

By an accident that didn't set off the airbags? But was bad enough that she had to bust out the rear windows to get him out? Yeah....

6. it's all Pulp. the news has been cancelled.

usually the news goes apeshit over the disappearance of a blonde somewhere- oh wait, his wife is a blonde. WINNER WINNER Chicken Dinner

[DJ13]

7. eh, billionaires in trouble always attract attention

[Bluebear]

8. Health care and Afghanistan are soooo boring

:crazy:

10. Tiger Woods is to O.J. Simpson as Barack Obama is to Sarah Palin.

or Cheese Cake is to Doggie Poop.

[CatWoman]

11. thanks for your awe inspiring comment

but I'm comparing the coverage more so than the two men.

[Walk away]

12. But it's the point. The media give the same credence to both. nt

[HipChick]

14. It's a Witchhunt..

[Cha]

17. Mediawhores do that with anybody

and anything that doesn't include substance.

[Politicalboi]

19. Tiger better watch out

Pretty but deadly.

[Blue-Jay]

20. That made me laugh and then made me sad.

But I laughed first. Phil would approve, I think.

[951-Riverside]

21. First person I thought of when I first heard this story. n/t

[CatWoman]

24. aw man

I still miss Phil :cry:

there's a big difference here -- she was nuts, PLUS an addict :scared:

[tnlefty]

22. Allow me to change the subject...heard anything about John

Edwards lately?:hide: :rofl:

I've been intentionally avoiding the coverage of Tiger Woods until something more than speculation surfaces. :hi:

edit: sorry to be so late telling you that your mod symbol looks good on you. :toast:

[CatWoman]

25. KG told me it made my ass look fat

:)

:hi:

[ecstatic]

23. It was sickening to hear Tweety breathlessly speculate on what crimes Tiger committed

[stevedeshazer]

26. I agree.

Up to a point.

But Tiger didn't lop off anyone's dome.

on edit: Media coverage is ridiculous, so yeah, that's right.

[Catherine Vincent]

28. Bad News sells. nt
