If you watch Caprica, there was an interesting, to me, scene the other night wherein a father is forced to go on a talk show and apologize for his daughter being a terrorist in order to save his company's stock price.

Of course, his wife came on, and he wound up subverting the model, backtracking from what his handlers 'incorrectly' told him to do, but I wonder what would've happened if Woods had said something different from what we all expected (a rote boring apology)....what if he had said, "I've got some flaws, I'm working them out, I've hurt some people, and I'm still coming to terms with how to control my desires so that I don't hurt my wife anymore."

Anyway, no matter what he did, he was going to be pilloried.
