While media did some coverage of worsening of race relations, creation of hashtags like #OscarsSoWhite during peak of public discontent towards Obama, little reporting has been done analysing impact on careers of some high profile African-Americans whose careers were flourishing before Obama came to White House. There was one theory that with Obama in the White House, it became easier to prosecute decades old crimes in case of Cosby, Woods but it may not be as simplistic as TIME had suggested

This is one sad saga of sharp fall from grace for a very accomplished golf star who used to be inspiration for many:

Tiger Woods DUI Arrest: New Dashcam Video Shows Cops Questioning Golf Star

by Phil Helsel

Florida authorities on Wednesday released dashcam video showing Tiger Woods being questioned by police during an early Monday incident that ended with the golf star being charged with driving under the influence.
Woods, 41, has said he suffered from an unexpected reaction from medication, and court documents show he blew 0.00 after being given two Breathalyzer tests.
One of the videos released Wednesday shows Woods appear to be unsteady as he is given a field sobriety test, which involves walking heel-to-toe along, and appearing to become confused when asked to recite the alphabet.
Woods was found asleep at the wheel (http://www.nbcnews.com/news/sports/tiger-woods-was-allegedly-asleep-wheel-dui-arrest-n766086) when police approached his car just after 2 a.m. ET about nine miles from his Jupiter Island home, according to a probable cause affidavit.

Oprah Regrets Launching OWN, Won't Campaign For Obama

www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2012/04/02/oprah-regrets-own/ (http://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2012/04/02/oprah-regrets-own/)
Apr 2, 2012 - The network is struggling; Rosie O'Donnell's show was canceled and 30 employees have been fired. Just as importantly, Winfrey said she is so ...
When Oprah first campaigned for then-Senator Barack Obama in 2008, it was in the face of what many women considered the history-making candidacy of Hillary Clinton, who was on her way to becoming the first woman nominated by a major party for president and possibly the presidency itself.
As a result, there was a backlash against the talk show titan that many believe affected her ratings (http://mediadecoder.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/14/oprahs-politics-may-have-viewers-voting-with-their-feet/). Now, with her media empire known as OWN on life support, Oprah might have decided that publicly backing a unpopular and divisive president might not be the best move for her struggling network.

No alcohol. He is taking meds for back pain. Cops should have called a tow company and a cab for him.

He made a mistake, next, with his money, I hope he takes a limo.

There is also report of his back surgery.
He got no break. Not sure if this kind of recording and video release is standard procedure. Wonder if this played a role.

Going back to a previus discussion, I think Tiger is one of the victims of a legalized form of human trafficking known as professional sports. Look what happened once he left Stanford. Media feeding frenzy all day every day analyzing his every word and putt.

I used to party with this guy who would do vocal impersonations. He would be half high and do his judge impersonation. He'd say, "Everybody not guilty. Get high."

He was some care free hillbilly guy. You had to be there.

I always think of the judge vocalization when seeing these stories.

I know; cool story, bro. :p

I fail to follow the line of reasoning here. Because we had a Black president some famous black people could get in trouble?
Woods had a very public falling marriage breakup due to a variety of women. How's that involve Obama?

If OJ had waited a few decades he would have been found guilty?

Mostly like OJ would have been found guilty if trial was in 2012.. all other variables being same. He was sent to prison for much smaller crime of "stealing his memorobilia" during Obama Presidency while many believe he was spared during murder trial for fear of another "Rodney King" riots repeat. Jury selection, prosecution everything was very political.

The argument here, for which there is some basis, is that breaking of "dirt" stories/coverage in media, conduct of cops / prosecutors are often influenced by political atmosphere in America like most places. Of the three examples, "Obama factor" connection is probably stronger relatively in cases Cosby and Oprah but Tiger like Cosby did face almost punitive press and system. It may have been just "fair" and not "overlooking" but it was aesier to go "tough" on a minority without being called "racist" when a minority is in the White House.

OJ didn't do it, his son Jason did it.
