Race and the Woods' Case
Earl, kiddo, you have to remember that Tiger Woods is only part black. The other parts are Asian, white and Native American, so maybe the media is aiming at those parts instead. Besides, everyone knows that if it's salacious then the media will go out after it. Let's take a look at some recent breaking events from TMZ and other sources:
Oprah is throwing in the towel, the Kardashian sisters are vying for a spot on that show before Oprah rings down the curtain, Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gylenhaal are calling it quits and let's not forget Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, who are about as Caucasian looking as they come. So when they media jumps all over a story, they jump all over it brown, white or in between.
Many online outlets posts stories like these first due to Fast Food journalism, which states that the easier the story is to digest, the longer it will remain on the virtual menu. On the other end we have the Filet Mignon journalism where the focus is on beefier stories like the war in Afghanistan, the 1,000 plus page health care bill or a presidential speech, which usually gets bumped to the back of the net to make room for the next debacle. And it's all because Fast Food journalism that requires that is easier to swallow and digest and makes the rest of us look relatively normal.
When I was a kid, I used to watch games of Tiger Woods. But now that I have my own child, he used to do what I used of, and during this holiday, I want to surprise him. While online shopping is more convenient and safer, in most cases, than shopping in a store, never let your guard down. Take care, and be wary of prices that seem too good to be true. You want to see what levels of encryption are in place, and whether they use credit card security is accredited, like through a company like VeriSign. The safest way to pay for anything on the Internet is by using the Visa, MasterCard or Discover logos; or, simply put, credit cards. In the event of fraud, card issuers have security methods in place that consumers can use.
