The media on Tiger Woods: When do you sell your soul for a scoop?

November 29th, 2009 by Administrator | Posted in Media, Pop Culture, Tiger Woods | 1 Comment »

As part of the hustle I call my career, I write for the entertainment section of a major metro newspaper. I have to say that I’ve never saw myself as controversial or as gutter-mouthed as I do when writing for this publication. I’ve definitely gotten in trouble for using words (harmless terms like “douche” and [...]

After much anticipation, Playgirl.com posted the first set of nude photos from Johnston’s shoot. We already knew that he wasn’t going the full monty (even though [...]
