I've never bought the argument that if you are a public figure, the public owns you. I think that's nonsense.

I've never understood why Clinton agreed to answer some of the outrageously personal questions that were put to him.

I agree entirely with Tiger not answering questions. IMO though, he should not have held the press conference. I would simply have issued a statement saying "the personal difficulties I am having in my marriage are no one else's business". Full stop.
