Someone is going to have to challenge him openly about his indifference, not that it will change him, but make it less comfortable for him to be so quick to forgive racial incidents with a real thought.Dr. Tracey Salisburyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06209154351201523646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7428262663623493707.post-56466608086310338292008-01-18T16:28:00.000-05:002008-01-18T16:28:00.000-05:00Thanks for providing a wee bit more info on this s...Thanks for providing a wee bit more info on this story. <BR/><BR/>ESPN was on all day yesterday here at my house, and I found myself agreeing with the commentators who blasted the magazine for its insensitvity in choosing a noose for the cover. I too was miffed. <BR/><BR/>But now I discover that the noose on the cover (though still a bit tasteless, IMO) was the editor's way of calling attention to a larger expose' inside of the sport and the bigotry that lingers in the sport. Whether the editor was fired/reassigned because of the tastless cover shot or the fine investigative article inside-- is not clear. Probably both.the_shulammitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17287074430660308458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7428262663623493707.post-7395097647247957312008-01-18T13:27:00.000-05:002008-01-18T13:27:00.000-05:00Professor Tracey,Yep, this doesn't make any sense....Professor Tracey,<BR/><BR/>Yep, this doesn't make any sense. In fact the whole thing makes no sense. <BR/><BR/>The woman that made the statement must be a total idiot if she didn't know the lynching reference would be offensive.<BR/><BR/>Tiger not being offended is weird but par for his course (pun intended).<BR/><BR/>And now this, like I always say; race in America is a series of never ending problems and misunderstandings.Mes Deux Centshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10697034868111011343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7428262663623493707.post-69725865168256467052008-01-18T12:54:00.000-05:002008-01-18T12:54:00.000-05:00What's even worse is Tiger's indifference.

Taking that kind of action against the writer is ridiculous.Anonymisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13030472200941563001noreply@blogger.com
