While Madonna was saving an African baby's life the media simply ignored how Denzel Washington a black actor was helping his American wounded soldiers. This news was sent in by one of our visitors. Thank you. Read on peeps.
Don't know whether you heard about this but Denzel Washington and his family visited the troops at Brook Army Medical Center, in San Antonio, Texas (BAMC) the other day. This is where soldiers who have been evacuated from Germany come to be hospitalized in the United States, especially burnt victims. There are some buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay,for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying in the Hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled most of the time. While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how much one of them would cost to build. He took his cheque book out and wrote a check for the full amount right there on the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear this story and want to get the word out to the American public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it.
The question I have is why does:
Alec Baldwin, Madonna, Sean Penn, and other Hollywood types make front page news with their antics and Denzel Washington's good deed to America doesn't even make the back page of any major media outlet except the Local newspaper in San Antonio.
What do you think?
