interesting from james clapper. he was asked by lindsey graham about any kind of concern about trump business interests. anything from president trump s business that might have a tie to russia. clapper said he can t comment on that because that impacts the investigation. it was a moment that raised eyebrows. i want your take on that. my take, hallie, is we need to be cautious about that. clapper also said he hasn t been briefed on the fbi counter intelligence investigation and he only learned about it when comey disclosed it publicly. i am not sure what to read into clapper s statement there. there has clearly been a series of allegations that the russians have tried to influence trump through business deals. now, trump, of course, denies doing business in russia, but there are well documented instances where russians have invested in trump properties. just recently, a golf writer claimed that eric trump told him that trump was financing his golf courses with russian money. eric tru

we re talking about tiger woods statement today. doug ferguson is a golf writer in the room when tiger spoke. what was the atmosphere like, doug? strange when we got in, larry. it was like showing up to church early. all of his close associates and friends and whatnot had already been seated and sat there and frankly didn t move for the next 25, 30 minutes. a presidential feel to it with the blue drapes, and there was no big announcement. tiger just walked in the room and began. and, frankly, the only drama was when the center camera went out about nine minutes into his statement. larry: the golf writers association was offering an opportunity to be part of the media pool. they declined. did you have any kind of queasy feelings of going where you weren t allowed to ask anything?
special insight you have as a golf writer. if you spend time in these news conferences with tiger woods, i ve watched a lot of his news conferences on television. this felt like pretty classic tiger, except that it was a little it was a lot more v t scripted than usual, but this felt like tiger, if he doesn t want to answer a question, he doesn t answer it. and if he starts to get a little ticked, you feel it in the room. didn t this feel to you like tiger woods, the tiger woods, you ve been covering for years? well, yeah. there s definitely an element of that. you know, tiger s all about control, from controlling his golf ball to controlling his life, and so there was definitely, you know, when this was set up, there was a sense of that, and people reacted angrily to a lot of it. but i think parts of it i think parts of what the he said, you know, were sincere and, you know, i think like you pointed out earlier, he went very far in take the blame and saying this was my fault, i
