Hugh “Wolverine” Jackman has found a way to use Twitter and his celebrity for charity.

I will donate 100K to one individual's favorite non profit organization. Of course,you must convince me why by using 140 characters or less

He's re-tweeting the pleas he gets on his Twitter feed, so that while only one charity gets his $100,000 lots of folks get a bit of free publicity for their work. It's a cunning way of leveraging his fame.

Smart, handsome, famous, tech-savvy, and a stand-up guy; Mr Jackman gives George Clooney a run for his money. And unlike Clooney, the guy can sing ...

Point taken but only on the Murrow picture. Don't believe everything you read in the tabloids.
