On Tiger: A Distinction Worth Making

The national obsession with a little fender-bender in Florida isn't the kind of thing I usually like to justify with a comment. However, Kathleen Parker's recent remarks about the Tiger Woods episode are worth noting: "This isn't breaking news," she points out. "This is breaking gossip."

Oh, that more among us could tell the difference!

Amen! It made me sick earlier this week when it was barely even a mention that 30,000+ additional troops were going to be deployed yet all anyone seemed to want to talk about was Tiger.
