The Problem With Tiger Isn't a Mistress in The Closet

In our celebrity and sex-scandal obsessed culture what has gone under the radar in the Tiger Woods affair is his morally corrupt business dealings. Woods has made close to one billion dollars in endorsements over the course of his career.

Most recently, Tiger's 100 million dollar deal with Dubai Land, Tiger Woods Golf Course and Resort, has come under scrutiny. The city of Dubai, the financial heart of the United Arab Emirates, now teetering on bankruptcy, is a hub of the illegal sex trade and commits among the largest number of labor violations anywhere in the world.

Woods, who has publically professed to be on the side of civil rights, has never spoken against Dubai Land, even though human rights organizations have urged him to.
