The worlds obsession with Tiger Woods has created a hysteria takes away from the actual news that is taking place in the world. Back in November when the story first broke about Wood’s alleged mistresses the new media could not get enough of the story. Everywhere you look people were bombarded with the growing number of women stepping forward claiming to have had relations with the worlds best golfer. The world again has all eyes on Woods and is family as he prepares to make his comeback into the golfing world.
Woods has lost the respect for many of his fans, which once saw his as a role model but now are left feeling betrayed are the golfers persona and strikingly different social life. When will new coverage bring the same attention to the stories that matter rather then a private life of a golfer?
Infidelity is widely seen and displayed the world today. Divorce rates are at an all time high, however this does not mean that the infidelities of a celebrity like Tiger Woods have anymore bearing on our lives then an average person.
The grubby nature of this story sells papers and gets views to tune in. Ratings soared for the Masters Golf tournament where Woods made his first appearance on the course.
You can only hope that time will establish respect and meaning back into the news, but for now we are overwhelmed with the lives of celebrities like Tigers Woods.
