Why report this? Just because it's Tiger?

Sounds pretty funny to me. I think a lot of people would have reported it.
 
At this time of year, any golf news is likely to get a little bit of play. Besides, it was funny.
 
Here's the story:

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. — Tiger Woods has been off since September, but he remains as unflappable as ever, whether facing a field of the world's top players or a prank by a blonde "reporter."

Looking trim and relaxed after his longest break from competitive play as a Tour pro (not counting injury), Woods took questions Tuesday at the serene Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, Calif., site of this weekend's Target World Challenge. His end-of-the-year tournament to benefit the Tiger Woods Foundation features a murderer's row of talent, but Tiger's main competition for the spotlight Tuesday was an attractive woman wearing press credentials.

She immediately asked Tiger if he thought "my boyfriend is gay because he screams out your name during sex?" and then posed an even cruder question. She made an inaudible plug for a Web site as she was escorted from the building, and Tiger wore a bemused smile as if there was nothing in the world that could surprise him anymore.

Makes me wonder what the cruder question was.

It was pretty funny, good for a notes piece or whatever.

I was hopign she'd ask him if Ellin makes his putter stand up! Or if she kissed his balls for good luck. Now that would have been a press conference.

But, did you all look at the site they talked about at the bottom of the story.
The guy who started it is a class A prick who talked **** about a former lover on the air in Louisville and was sued by her.

Something about ass to mouth?
 
Considering he's been involved with the media since he started walking, I don't think anything could shake Tiger in a press conference, aside from someone reading aloud from Pierce's GQ piece at a press conference and quoting the **** jokes.
