TNA has announced that they will be asking people that come to next week's TV tapings in Orlando to bring a donation for the victims of Tuesday's massive earthquake in Haiti. They will then donate the money to the Central Florida Headquarters of the American Red Cross to help struggling folks in the country, which is very close to Florida. The article has the following quote from Dixie Carter, "The photos and video from Haiti are tragic. We want to help. We have to help. The money raised at The iMPACT! Zone is just a start of TNA’s plan to help the country of Haiti."
Meanwhile, backstage interviewer Bubba The Love Sponge wrote (or possibly had someone write for him) the following on his Twitter page on January 14 (with the swearing edited out for family consumption): "I say f*** hati. Why do we have to take care of everybody our country is in shambles. Bubba".
While I would agree that there are plenty of people to help here in the US (I was in New Orleans last week and can tell you that there are parts of the city that still have not been rebuilt from the damage wreaked by Hurricane Katrina), Bubba comes off as a real tool here to me. You don't have to send money to the country to at least feel compassion for the people impacted there.
