for volunteering, ML! Thanks for the reminder about the telethon. It will be broadcast on so many channels simultaneously that it will be hard to miss if your TV is on tonight, Sept. 9 from 8 p.m.-9 p.m.

FYI. Other telethon news:
--Last week, NBC's "A Concert for Hurricane Relief" raised about $50.8 million, according to the Red Cross, USA Today reported.

--"ReAct Now: Music & Relief" will air at 8 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 10 on MTV, VH1 and CMT with the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Neil Young, Sheryl Crow, Alan Jackson, Kelly Clarkson, the Neville Brothers and Kanye West.

--"Gospel Angels," a live concert from Atlanta, will air Thursday, Sept. 22 on the Gospel Music Channel and Paxson Communications' i network (formerly Pax). The show will include performances from hurricane victims' shelters.

And if it's broadcast simultaneously, it will be hard to censor out Kayne West telling the world that "George Bush doesn't like black people."

I say give Kayne another shot. His pertinent remark was removed from the west coast airing of the last Katrina telecast. (Of course, that just made it all the more newsworthy ... d'uh.)

I'd say based on the response from NFL kickoff pregame show in Boston last night prior to the Patriots-Raiders, it's kind of obvious that not a whole lot of people agree with it, and in fact, I'd say a vast majority are hostile to it. That's why Kanye has said he's not going to be saying anything else political at these things.
