THE RESPONSIBILITY OF AIRING A SHOW ( Desperate Wive Case)

I'm already more tired of reading about this than I am about Britney Spears. I think part of the problem was that it was a joke that some people did not seem to understand. The thing is, as I've said to many other people with similar discussions, when one becomes a citizen of the United States of America, they sort of get a new life. What this means is that if you were a scientist in your previous country... or a doctor.. or whatever it was that you were in your country, when You come to America and become a citizen... all of those credentials become invalid. You must earn your degrees to be a doctor from American schools. I don't make the laws and I'm not saying it's right, but that's just how it is! Many MANY shows and movies have made jokes about this in the past. About the fact that your credentials earned as a citizen of another country are no longer valid when you become a citizen of America! I don't know why THIS particular incident has become a big deal, I guess people just didn't catch all of the other movies and tv shows that have said similar. You want an example? House on tuesday night. One of his applicants for the job was talking about how she had to become an intern because she was a doctor in her country and it was no longer valid now that she's in America. I'm sure it's on youtube...I can't quote it exactly, but anyway this isn't a new phenomenon. There's nothing new about it. TV can't take it back. You won't accept their apology. What more do you want? I mean, I understand that you and others were offended, but TV has offended EVERYONE at some point or another. People offend people. It's a part of the circle of life. It's not right, but sometimes you've just got accept things and move on.

yes. all the ppl involves have the responsibility.

I knew all the ranting and raving about a public apology wouldnt be enough. Thats all I have read about, people wanting a public apology, then one is granted and now people dont feel its enough. Im not sure Im clear on what your saying; "in my personal view the insertion of that dialogue was deliberately done which is not in connection with how the script was on going" Are you saying that Teri Hatcher just threw that in there in the middle of taping the show? Or are you saying that they new it was racist and said F'k it, let her say it anyway? I think everyone involved does have a responsibility, they did what was requested of them, and now its not enough! SO what will be enough?? Bay xx

A diplomatic protest from the Philippines and a public apology from the production staff is just fair.
