this is my trying to populate data in my homecontroller

    public ActionResult GetEvent()
    {
        try
        {

            string i = "aaaaaaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaa-aaaaaaaaaaaa";
            string et = "KI2XfwQNByLPFdK4i3a74slLT7sjjzYRi9RR7zEtCoQ%3D";
            string t = "20111128183020";
            string _checkingUrl =  String.Format("http://172.22.22.10/SampleAPI/Event/GetEvents?at={0}&et={1}&t={2}&responseFormat=json", i, et, t);
            System.Net.HttpWebRequest request=System.Net.WebRequest.Create(_checkingUrl) as System.Net.HttpWebRequest;
            System.Net.HttpWebResponse response=request.GetResponse() as System.Net.HttpWebResponse;
            System.IO.StreamReader _readResponse=new System.IO.StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
            //The encrypted dynamics response in either xml or json
            var _responseAsString=_readResponse.ReadToEnd();
            JavaScriptSerializer parseResponse = new JavaScriptSerializer();

            List<Event> events = parseResponse.Deserialize<List<Event>>(_responseAsString);

            Event eventOjb = new Event();
            events.Add(eventOjb);

            ViewBag.eventss = events;

            _readResponse.Close();
            // check json object
            return Content(_responseAsString.ToString());  



        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(e.ToString());
            //log error
        }
        return View();
    }

this is my Event class that is in the model folder

  using System;
  using System.Collections.Generic;
 using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations;


 namespace StopMalaria.Models
 {
public class Event
{
    public string event_key { get; set; }
    public string user_token { get; set; }
    public string event_set_key { get; set; }
    public string event_type { get; set; }
    public string event_date { get; set; }
    public string event_amount { get; set; }
    public string event_location_key { get; set; }
    public string event_location_name { get; set; }
    public string event_location_city { get; set; }
    public string event_location_state { get; set; }
    public string event_location_country { get; set; }
    public string event_acknowledged { get; set; }
}

}
