I certainly won't join in any hand-wringing about Tiger Woods' privacy.
Here's the thing:
If you become a coal miner, you do so cognizant of the fact that there is a high risk of lung problems.
If you become a Special Forces Commando Soldier, you do so knowing there is a high risk for danger and death.
[Insert long list of potential cause and effect, here......]
You take action and you take the benefits and you take the risks that go with the benefits.
If you become a successful high profile professional athlete (or musician, actor, other celebrity.....) you accept the benefits of so doing, and you also accept that your sense of privacy will
NOT BE THE SAME AS THAT OF SOME ANONYMOUS PERSON WHO IS NOT A BILLIONAIRE CELEBRITY PUBLIC FIGURE.
Especially if you have tens of adulterous affairs (with seedy strippers, porn stars and the like) on your beautiful wife while she's caring for your two infant children......said wife beats you down in the middle of the night on a National holiday, you go crash the car, try to cover it up...............
Need we go on, here?
The "apology" was not that. It was a statement to the media to back the fuck off.
Probably won't have the hoped-for effect.
More will be revealed.....
