Should Matt Lauer's affair(s) get the same media scrutiny as Tiger Woods' affairs?

[wndycty]

And should someone on THE TODAY (maybe Tiger as a guest host) get to interview Lauer's mistress(es) like Lauer did with Tiger's?

I'm not defending Tiger or attack Matt as much as pointing out that its kind of hypocritical for THE TODAY SHOW, and other media outlets, to breathlessly report on the shameful behavior that sometimes takes place in the private lives of public figures without acknowledging their own shameful behavior.

I'd be much happy if EVERYONE's personal dirty laundry remained personal.

Matt Lauer Cheating? Annette Roque, 'Today' Host Reportedly Split After Olympics Affairs

Larry King isn't the only TV personality with marital issues.

"Today" show host Matt Lauer has reportedly moved out of his house after his wife accused him of cheating while covering the WInter Olympics in Vancouver.

The National Enquirer reports that Lauer, who married Dutch model Annette Roque in 1998, moved out of the couple's apartment after an "explosive two-day fight" with his wife. Annette's mother has reportedly confirmed the news to the Enquirer.

Annette accused Lauer of "fooling around during Today's on-site coverage of the Olympics in Vancouver," and the Enquirer reports that Lauer "went wild" while in Canada.

RadarOnline adds:

Suspicions were first sparked when Matt stood Annette up for Valentine's Day, choosing instead to stay in Vancouver, where a source says Matt was often spotted boozing and flirting with women - in particular two pretty Canadian broadcasters.
