The Information Age

With the internets and the 24 hour news cycle, we get virtually instantaneous info on big news. But the info is pretty crappy, isn't it? First I heard Tiger Woods was in serious condition, then I heard he was in perfectly fine condition and was released from the hospital under his own power, then I heard his car flipped over, his mouth was full of blood and his wife had to bash his windshield in with a golf club to free him, then I heard he was hepped up on vicodin, peeled out of his driveway, ran over a fire hydrant and his wife came at him with a golf club because he was cheating on her. She may have also been hepped on vicodin . I would've been better off hearing 'something happened to Tiger Woods' so I could at least make up something good in my head. Though his wife coming at him in a jealous rage with a golf club is pretty good. Dude makes $100 mill a year in endorsements alone -- he can't afford a dent proof vehicle of some sort with shatter proof glass? And a robot to back his shatter-proof/dent proof car out of the driveway at high speed while he ducks down? Though I guess no need to duck in a shatter-proof/dent proof vehicle.
