I too think that there is much more out there that has not been published yet. That is the reason why Tiger remains silent.
As the old saying goes, “you cannot put perfume on a pig”. Sooner or later the pig will go back to romp in the muck.

thanks for the update Ed, much appreciated.
David Letterman is a scumbag that betrayed his wife and children and deserves to be villified. This dirtbag forced 14 workers from his nighttime show to have sex with him. This dirtbag made all golfers look like womanizers and whoremongers. His poor wife and the kids should get $1 BILLION and all the homes and a court order preventing Letterman from being within 1 mile of them.

How is Robert Halderman any different to Rachel Uchitel? The answer is he is not.
He was privvy to information that he offered to keep private in exchange for cash. Everybody can question Mr Halderman's ethics, but the legality of extortion has to be in serious doubt.
The only mistake that Halderman made was not to legal up first to ensure a contract was put in place that ensured that he could not be charged with extortion.
Letterman comes out of this looking like a victim. When really because of his abuse of wealth and power he was able to destroy peoples lives.
A lot of people nowadays see Letterman as a bully and abuser.
Well the world is in a mess that's for sure. Between Tiger, Letterman and the new TSA regulations it's not been a very good start to 2010 so far. Now you cannot bring carry-on luggage on flights from Canada to USA, it is causing too much hold up. I wrote about it here: www.examiner.com/examiner/x-29076-SF-World-Travel-Examiner~y2010m1d3-Travelers-outraged-to-find-carry-on-luggage-banned-altogether-from-Canada-to-US (feel free to comment)
rumor has it that tiger has a new boy friend
It is really no ones business Let him without sin throw the first stone
The more its fed the larger this story grows many of the stories printed with a big bold headline is just a fabric of the writers imagination which is all lies really don't you get the feeling and have enough going on in your own life that this is only between Tiger and Elin and absolutely no ones business but theirs.
How would you like to be seen with these headlines wouldn't you believe it was only your business.
