Editor Wanted: Golfweek Magazine Caught in Own Noose

Golfweek magazine replaced the editor responsible for choosing the illustration of a noose on the current cover and apologized Friday for its depiction of a Golf Channel anchor’s use of “lynch” in a comment about Tiger Woods.

"We apologize for creating this graphic cover that received extreme negative reaction from consumers, subscribers and advertisers across the country," Turnstile Publishing Co. president William P. Kupper Jr. said.

I think that this was the right thing to do for Golfweek to fire there editor. Now I am not gonna lie, I think that the media ways a lot of things far to heavy on race. Race is not a huge factor anymore like it used to be and the media always brings it up. STOP IT! But this cover was just a little to far. This incident occured about 2 weeks with the comment about Tiger, that Tiger did not even care about and everyone wanted to just forget about it. But now this magazine cover comes out and we are talking about it again. Now this gives the media reasons to talk about race and what a big effect it has in sports.

I watch alot of sports shows and every time they start talking about race I usually just change the channel. This incident should have been put to rest a while ago and I am getting sick of listening to this. The original comment was about Tiger and the very next day the comment came out he said it did not bother him. Then the next day the women who said it also apologized, so if the man who the so called racist comment was about does not care about it why would this stupid editor go and do something like that. Now we will have to listen to more talks about race for weeks and weeks. BRUTAL BRUTALBRUTAL…thanks editor man for being a huge jerk.
