Today I realized a sad truth. As I flipped through the news channels when I arrived home from school, an “important update on a recent story” appeared. My ears immediately perked up. As I watched expecting to hear something about the President or the economy, Tiger Woods appeared on the screen.

What was this “important update?” Merely information on Tiger Woods and the apology he made today. After rolling my eyes, I flipped to another news station only to find the same update. Frustrated, I thought surely not every news station considers this breaking news. Sure enough, every channel I flipped to had Tigers sorry face.

Has this really what the news has come to? I don’t know about you, but I really don’t care how sorry Tiger is. I am going to think he is a cheating scum bag either way.

I really hope that the rest of the world agrees when I ask that the media sticks to reporting news as opposed to celebrity gossip.
