Just wondering why some celebrities are forgiven multiple acts of illegal and/or immoral acts while others are ripped apart for an indiscretion. Charlie Sheen has an incredible history of soliciting prostitution, Cocaine use, sexual addition, battery, and now threatening with a deadly weapon. Yet I do not hear about Hanes dropping his commercial with Michael Jordan. Tiger has been foolish and misbehaved in his marriage - not illegal and not uncommon for married men. Some people (the Jerry Springer and Maury Povich audience enjoy wallowing in other people’s misery) - that is equally morally reprehensible.
