"We think it is important for women to know that some of America's largest corporations maintain a double standard when it comes to sex discrimination, " Burk said.

There is a difference between legal sex discriminition and illegal sex discriminition, and big mouth Burke knows it. But she is trying to blend the two forms of sex discrimination together for PR effect.

"... CEOs who belong to Augusta National Golf Club may also be lax in supporting corporate policies to pay women fairly and promote women in equal numbers with men," said Smith, an NCWO member.

I just love this statement. Stick the word "may" in a sentence and you can make all kinds of assumptions. Hey, I "may" have murdered my wife today. The last time I saw her was at home a few hours ago and nobody else has seen her since. Is there at least the slightest chance, from somebody else's viewpoint, that I murdered her? Yes. But did I? No, of course not. But still, somebody could accurately say that I "may" have murdered her, until I can prove otherwise.

"The next target for the Web site is the PGA Tour.

Burk said the tour, which has a policy of not going to golf courses that discriminate, is setting a double standard by recognizing the Masters as an official tournament. She plans to add its official sponsors to her list and to showcase the tour's board of directors."

The PGA Tour has nothing to do with the Masters.
