Tiger Woods, WikiLeaks and the killing of a Reuters photographer by US Forces
A picture can be a thousand words. I came across this compelling statistic. On Monday when WikiLeaks story/video on the killing of Reuters photographer by US forces in Iraq check out the comparison of coverage. Only 8 news stories appeared in Google News of the Reuters Photographer and there were 3389 article on Tiger Woods returning to the Master's Golf Tournament. See link for image of Google results.
