The Times Loves Michelle Wie
In fact, the newspaper loves her so much it ran five pictures of the golfer today, including one on Page One, above the fold, as well as the rather gratuitous shot below. The Times website has a slideshow featuring another half-dozen photos of Wie.
Why? Because in her attempt to make the cut for the Masters—the top 18 finishers qualified—Wie finished...59th.
One questions the news judgment....after all, this is a story about a woman who wants to play in a golf tournament that has traditionally been for men. Michelle Wie is surely an excellent golfer. But she's not exactly Rosa Parks.
