Should Woods' private behavior not be public?

Should a public figure like Tiger Woods have the right to privacy after immoral acts? Should his sponsors continue their support? Does the public have the right to judge?

I personally don't think it's any of our business. Yeah sure Clinton got a BJ at work, and Tiger's a pimp outside of his marriage, but it's his personal life and we don't need to know about it IMO.

To the news and papparazi: Who gives a flying fuck? I sure as hell don't...

People want press and attention. They use their fame to get endosements and make big money. When they do something bad then they don't want all the free press that they sought years earlier. Tiger had a choice years ago to live on golf winnings alone. He didn't have to sell his sole to the devil and take millions fron Nike and others. It is a 2 edge sword.

I think that if the public would lose interest in the issue, it would just die. The public determines the amount of privacy by supporting the media in their endeavors. The bigger question is why do "we" care?

I'm far too groovy to engage in idle gossip but did ya hear? There's a 4th one now. It might save time to list the women he's not bopping.

Its none of our business, like that david letterman thing.

Though on the other hand they are "famous" so they are in the public eye alot. He had this coming to him.

Being tagged "famous" always has the downfall of the public following his/her life. Its part of the perks of being famous.

I remember Seal said once he doesnt mind the paperazzi and all that because he knows that it comes with the tag "famous"....good on him for living in the real world.

I agree once you choose to be famous, you're screwed.

Woods should lose all his endorsements. He is a role model and children look up to him. We cannot condone an immoral act. Look what happen with that dick head Clinton. Congress had no balls and we suffer the consequence. Teenagers were having oral sex and said it wasn't sex, because of the president. Young children will grow up thinking, it's OK to commit adultery.

I guess adultery is OK with you and it doesn't matter if children grow up thinking immorality is proper.

It wasn't sarcastic. If the truth offends, I'm sorry. Teenagers were having oral sex parties.
