Why should they tell anyone? It's everyone's private decision.
Many celebrities make their donations public to set an example hoping their fans will follow. Its not a big deal to make it public, its just a decision.
There hasn't been any sort of official announcement from the U2 camp.
Fine by me - not every celebrity feels the need to announce what they're doing charity-wise.
however, when Madonna donated, there was bit of outcry that she could have doubled her donation.
An exact example of "damned if you do". You don't announce, you get accused of doing nothing. You do announce, you get accused of not giving enough.
You do announce, you get accused of not giving enough.
if Bono came out and said how much he donated or if he donated, people would get on his ass for announcing his charitable donation for publicities sake.
man, im drunk and its barely noon...
