Where did you play the TW debacle?

So where did your newspaper play the Tiger Woods saga?
We have played the whole thing in sports.
The first day (Sunday?) was a brief (Woods involved in car accident).
I don't think we had a story on Monday, but have had inside stories Tuesday, Wednesday and today.

 

What was that paper that didn't put Obama's election as president on the front page? What did they do with this story?

 

We put it on the bottom of the front, decision involved the fact that tiger is extremely famous, not just because he's an athlete, also from his endorsements, etc.

 

briefs the first day.
bottom of Sports front the 2nd day.
Briefs the next 2 days.
Bottom of Sports front again today.

 

I think it got the front sports page on a slow local day last week, otherwise I don't think it's been mentioned much.

 

I don't think we've had a word on it. We're hyper-local.

 

Maybe you could go out to the beer joints and see if any if the waitresses have slept with Tiger.

Localize the story, dammit!

 

It's been inside, on page 2, until today's edition. We needed another story for the front, though I'd have preferred it to be below the fold.

 

Bottom of sports front first day, which was appropriate. Two sports front columns since, each pretty lame. An inside sports story every day.

But our 1A tease the first day --- "Wife rescues Tiger" or some bullshit variation of that headline --- made me cringe because it was obvious something smelled rotten.

 

bottom sports saturday am
top sports Monday pm (not sure why, but I wasn't working)
right rail story tuesday pm, plus a mention in my column
Ferguson column wednesday pm ...
Wilbon colum thurs ... news took the mea culpa
And in Friday sports, we are a Tiger-free zone!!

 

Prenup renegotiation and 3rd mistress to come forward didn't get a mention?
