Haiti

In refrence to the current issue of Haiti, this is an excellent video that expresses and encourages the help of others all over. I thought it was a brilliant idea to have all the singers that are popular amonst different groups sing together in order to get a message across. This just shows the impact of the media and the influnce it has on the public. Becausae of this single video thousands of dollars were raised to help Haiti. Now people all over can see how a naturaL disaster can help the world come together. This is very touching.
