George Clooney, MTV working on Haiti telethon
(AP) — MTV Networks is working with George Clooney to stage a telethon for Haitian earthquake relief.
MTV spokesman Mark Jafar said Thursday that details are still being worked out.
There's no word yet about other stars getting involved. But Clooney representative Stan Rosenfield said the actor is in the process of helping organize the telethon, which likely would air Jan. 22 on all MTV Networks — which include VH1, Comedy Central and CMT — as well as on ABC, NBC, HBO and CNN.
Thousands are feared dead after the massive earthquake, and the Caribbean island nation desperately needs aid.
