5. Tiger, Role Model ?
Back in 1993, NBA star Charles Barkley set off a firestorm by insisting in a Nike TV ad that he was not a role model. Critics blasted him for supposedly shirking his responsibility to the kids who idolized him and bought his sneakers. 16 years later, the debate over athletes as role models is back on the front burner thanks to another Nike spokesman, Tiger Woods. Once thought to be the ultimate role model, it turns out he’s anything but at least if the tabloid reports are true. Now, this may sound crazy, but there may be a way for Tiger to turn it around. He's announced an indefinite hiatus from golf to focus on his wife and family. Nobody's perfect, but if he can show he's truly sorry explain why he did this and that he can become a better person in the wake of this scandal. Perhaps he'll resume the role of someone we can continue to admire. That's a page from my notebook. I'm Katie Couric, CBS News.

5.3 Translation
1993년, NBA 스타 Charles Barkley는 나이키 TV 광고에서 그가 역할모델이 아니였다는 것을 주장함으로써, 뜨거운 논쟁을 불러일으켰습니다. 평론가들은 그가 그를 숭배하다시피 하는 그리고 그의 스니커즈를 사준 아이들에 대한 책임을 회피하는 것에 대해 맹비난을 쏟았습니다. 16년 후, 역할모델로서, 운동선수에 대한 논쟁이 또 다른 나이키 대표자, Tiger Woods 덕분에 다시 많은 관심을 받고 있습니다. 한때, 최고의 역할모델로 여겨졌던 그는 적어도 그 타블로이드 보도가 진실이라면, 결코 그런 사람이 아니라고 밝혀집니다. 지금, 이것이 이상한 소리처럼 들릴지도 모르지만 Tiger 가 그의 태도를 바꿀 방법이 있을지도 모릅니다. 그는 그의 아내와 가족에게 집중하기 위해 골프로부터의 무기한의 공백기간을 발표했습니다. 아무도 완벽하지 않습니다. 그러나 왜 그가 그런 행동을 했는지 설명하고 진정으로 사과한다면, 그 스캔들 이후, 더 나은 사람이 될 수 있습니다. 아마 그는 우리가 계속 존경 할 수 있는 누군가의 역할을 다시 시작할 것입니다. 지금까지 Notebook 코너였습니다. 저는 CBS 뉴스의 Katie Couric 이였습니다.

NBA
Tabloid
Tabloid is an industry term for a smaller newspaper format per spread; to a weekly or semi-weekly alternative newspaper that focuses on local-interest stories and entertainment, often distributed free of charge (often in a smaller, tabloid-sized newspaper format); or to a newspaper that tends to sensationalize and emphasize or exaggerate sensational crime stories, gossip columns repeating scandalous and innuendos about the deeply personal lives of celebrities and sports stars, and other so-called "junk food news" or junk mail (often in a smaller, tabloid-sized newspaper format). As the term "tabloid" has become synonymous with down-market newspapers in some areas, some small-format papers which claim a higher standard of journalism refer to themselves as "compact" newspapers instead.
