http://www.cnn.com/2009/US/11/26/nfl.skid.row.teen/index.html

NFL's $45 million man helps Skid Row teen's college dream

Summary:
This clip shows us, "The high school honor student (who is homeless) and the NFL's highest-paid defensive back stroll down the destitute streets of Skid Row.
Seventeen-year-old Kenneth Chancey is giving a tour to Nnamdi Asomugha, showing the NFL star the streets that he and his sister used to walk to get to school while living in a Skid Row homeless shelter. Prostitutes, addicts and drug dealers scatter. "Camera! Camera!" they shout." It lets us know about Skid Row, and Kenneth Chancey. It shows us their neighborhood.


Response:
I think that this clip is a very great clip to show around the world. This shows the highest paid cornerback in the NFL caring for some homeless kid and wants to help him out. This media all star helps everyone gain interest in this country for homeless people! I think it will help people feel more tender about homeless people, and it was a great clip.

  2. Because of him posting this through the media will help people provide more donations to this fundraiser.

  3. I watched the clip. Asomugha gave the kid the help because he saw the kids story on CNN. That's the media connection.
