Tiger Woods' Wife Wins Damages In Nude Photo Hoax

AP:

The wife of golfer Tiger Woods won $183,250 and an apology Friday from an Irish magazine that published an abusive article and a faked nude photo of her.

Trevor White, publisher of The Dubliner, conceded that the article -- published in September 2006 when Ireland was hosting the Ryder Cup -- "was cheap, tasteless, and deliberately offensive. It was also completely untrue."

The article visibly angered Woods during the opening day of competition, which the United States lost to Europe. His wife, Elin Nordegren Woods, welcomed the settlement in a statement Friday.

Her decision to donate the award shows a lot of class.

All she had to do was show she didn't have a tramp stamp on her back and doesn't use Nivea. Case closed.

Gee, see what can happen if your husband is a hero, and people like you. You can get them to say and pay anything.

Now if only Heather can convince the world that her photos are faked.

Naw, people hate her. No chance.

Hmm.
I was sent photos year or two ago that were of her nude... at a photoshoot, complete with seamless paper and lightboxes.
I thought they were real, being a photog myself. If not, someone deserves the medal of freedom in Photoshop skills.
