Viral Video: Is Tiger's Crash as a "News" Videogame Good or Bad?

Speaking as a former TV news and current affairs guy, the tool of being able to use animation to make certain aspects of a story is tempting, but also very dangerous. If it were done by my old newsroom, there'd be a big “REENACTMENT” on this footage, and there would have to be eyewitnesses and written police reports and the like, and the animation would strictly follow that text. This has no warning, and follows no reputable account, just tabloids, gossip, and (ugh) its digital counterpart, Twitter. So that's my opinion. The ability to illustrate aspects of a story can be very useful: say it's two testimonies in a criminal trial, and you show what must have happened according to two people, that sort of thing. But the ability to simply show rumors as if they were fact? Not so good.

These people have no decency reenacting Tiger Woods car crash. I honestly think that the media should at least temper their hunger for sensational stories, if not learn to respect people's privacy. I think Tiger's auto insurance quote doubled with this crash, but this is his last worry. The footage this Taiwanese television showed is not entertaining nor precise, such mockery should be forbidden.
