Desperate Housewives hullaballoo

When I learned about this issue, about Teri Hatcher's character mocking doctors from the Philippines, I was confused. It's not something we are known for and so really, we can't take it as a joke. It's a popular show and a lot of people watch it. To make a mockery of one of the professions practiced "BEST"by Filipinos is insulting and degrading. ABC Netwrok's apology will not suffice. It was LIBELOUS.

Other overt acts should be done by the show to directly rectify their utter disrespect to our Filipino doctors, and to our country in general. I am not a doctor, but my sister is. And she's one of the best in her field, working as Programme Officer for the World Health Organization (WHO). In life, there are things to ignore and there are things you pursue. This is one of those you pursue. We can't let this go. It was unfair and maliciously done. And it must be corrected. Otherwise, making "us" their punchline will be a habit.
