NY Post Story Taken Down?**

In today's New York Post, Keith J. Kelly detailed a purported quid pro quo arrangement between the National Enquirer owner American Media and Tiger Woods. As you'll note from the link above, the story has since been taken down but was syndicated on other Media Corp. sites and as of this posting, remains online. 

The National Enquirer caught Tiger Woods in a steamy extramarital affair two years ago, but killed the story in exchange for the golfer doing a rare cover-shoot for its sister mag -- despite Tiger's exclusive deal with a rival publication, a former editor told The Post.

Woods' camp, fearful of a potential public-relations nightmare in spring 2007, allegedly agreed to do a cover for Men's Fitness -- a magazine owned by the Enquirer's parent company, American Media, former Men's Fitness editor-in-chief Neal Boulton said yesterday.

"[American Media CEO] David Pecker knew about Tiger Woods' infidelity a long time ago," Boulton told The Post. "[Pecker] traded silence for a Men's Fitness cover."

That is so funny; the one and only copy of Mens Fitness that I ever bought off a newsstand was the Tiger cover issue.

What's the "rival publication" with whom Tiger has "an exclusive deal"? Golf Digest?

Geoff, did you write that last paragraph yourself? Or did you screen-capture it from The Onion?

Is Pecker's son named Harry?

Geoff, you've now made it in the celebrity blogsphere -- this post was linked on Deadspin. Please let the madness stop.

He's a slug. His wife is an 11 on a scale of 1-10, and that wasn't good enough? Oh well. Hope it costs him a bundle, but Sam and Charlie will be able to read this crap in a few years, so let's get back to golf. I see Duval made a nice comeback in his first round at Q School yesterday?

Mr. Kelly probably could have left out the "steamy" before extramarital affair, but why would he?
