Last night on CNN, a sports reporter was tut-tutting Tiger Woods’s “stonewalling the authorities,” How, she asked,  can he stiff-arm the cops when four were killed in a coffee shop in Seattle. In fact, of course, like everyone, Tiger should never talk to “the authorities,” since they are his enemies. He should watch this youtube instead. Talking to the police never does the citizen any good, and it can do vast harm.

UPDATE from Skip Oliva:

The other aspect of this “story” is how the media is now asserting its “ownership” of Woods and his family. A common thread of the many columns criticizing Woods asserts that since the press built up Woods’s image, he now “owes” them a public airing of his private business.
