You are right, but I still think its messed up. What causes people to need to know every little word that was said between Tiger and his mistresses? Isn't Melrose Place enough?

People talk about their morals and not having any respect for a guy cheating on his wife, yet they have no problem absorbing all the "juicy" details about it and infringing on any privacy that Tiger or anyone involved might need to sort through this mess.

At least in the "old days" there wasn't an internet to fuel the fire of these types of stories.
