  In wh at can only be described as gross exploitation of a tragedy, members of Talking Heads and Good Morning America have recorded the children who survived the Sandy Hook massacre singing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". Proceeds are going towards the United Way charity, and the Newtown Youth Academy, however, many are questioning the appropriateness of this course of action. The song has recently gone on sale on iTunes and Amazon. Check out the video below. Exploitation, or creative fundraising? Feel free to have your say.
