Teri Hatcher: do you think teri hatcher should give a public apology to filipino doctors?
in one of her lines in the desperate housewives, she quoted that filipino doctors are not good enough , she disrespected them without thinking that it might just be a line in her show, but millions of filipinos are now outraged and planning to ban the desperate housewives in the philippines
i think this celebrities need to think twice about delivering lines that could degrade other countries, they should know better. she is not welcome in our country. what kind of woman is that really,doctors here try to save lives here and abroad, she owes them a big apology.

The following is the answer: (Hint: The answer is not necessarily.)

Answer by Angel Heart
I believe that she needs to give a public apology to Filipino doctors. If they found it offensive, she needs to apologize whether she didn’t mean for it to be offensive.

I would be angry at her too.

Answer by Leighton M
I don’t think SHE should apologize, the writers of the show should. She gets paid to dleiver the lines, not write them. The writers should be making an apology and I think maybe she should too for not protesting the line.

Answer by MSLETY
I think the writers and Terry Hatcher owe the doctors an apology.

Answer by goldie
It’s not just Teri Hatcher you should be upset with. She only read the lines given to her by the writers of the show. Frankly I think she’s too dumb to realize the consequences of a line she read, rehearsed, and uttered on camera. Still, as a visible member of the show she should give some apology and do some charitable act as a conciliatory gesture. She can’t erase what was said. You, however, CAN do a lot. Write to the network (www.abc.go.com) or (ABC, Inc./500 S. Buena Vista Street/Burbank CA 91521-4551) or call them at 818-460-7477 (they don’t have a toll-free number). They tell in a respectful but forceful way how you feel and in what way you think they can rectify this injustice. You might suggest they put an apology at the end of the show. Also, write to the sponsors of the show and let them know you won’t be using their products if they continue to support this kind of racism.

Answer by Simmi
She should apologize, but so should the people who put the show together. They wanted it there. You are right. Let’s say we don’t like this sort of talk about people.

Answer by Filipino doctor
I am a Filipino doctor and I AM NOT offended by any remarks made on a TV series. Why should we filipinos make this thing into such a big issue with demands for an apology and protests and banning of the TV series? TV movies are works of fiction. Now it would be different if some high ranking politician in the U.S. said that filipinas are prostitutes then I guess all the japayukis and the putachings should protest that statement.

Answer by ddef
you’re wrong Filipino doctor. you are being degraded. it’s time for you to stand up. you have the right againts discrimination. this is discrimination. if you let them get away from this, it will happen again.

you don’t call a black man Nigger. you don’t call a japanese person Jap. You don’t call a white man cracker. someone is responsible and they should apologize.

wake up. you just got bitch slaped straight up.

actually…Teri hatcher wasn’t the only one….ages ago “Keith” from one tree hill also had a nasty comment about “Lucas’s” tatoo he said “where did you get that?Philippines?” I’m a Filipino and I’m proud of it no matter what they all say..besides they aren’t the ones living here….they wouldn’t know…

its such a shame these people(scriptwriters)believe in what they see in the TVs or newspapers…not all Filipino doctors are that bad…actually only unlicensed doctors would make mistakes…i think!!

i really think its a petty reason to ban the show not only because i like the show…hehe but also because we cant just let those comments affect our lives….because we know it aint true and filipino doctors are one of the best…also nurses

I am an American now loving in the Philippines… here’s my opinion……
1. Teri is merely reading her line in a “entertainment” program (Phil citizens…IT AIN”T REAL LIFE) it’s a frickin TV show!

2. Don’t want the stigma of having bad Doctors and nurses?….. stop the corruption in your country such as the recent leakage of the test answers to the Nursing Board Exam!

3. The Doctors here make about the equivalent of the USA minimum wage….no wonder they scramble to go to the USA for work. And yes, many FAIL the required exam once there.

4. Calling it a RACIAL slur is insane….I suppose a movie about Philippines fighting Japan and Japan is made to look like the bad guy is racist? Are you insane? Again, its a movie.

5 There is reason why the Philippines refers to it’s self as a “developing country” the new term for “3rd world…..this is your own self evaluation and it is true, so why are you upset at TERI when you created a country with this “incompetency” perception? TERI and the USA did not create that reality.

6. Less talk and more action is what the Phil needs…. I haven’t had a straight answer to anything since I got here 3 years ago.

Yes I will be blasted for my comments, I know, and I can take it because it is only my opinion… and yes I am married to a Philippina, so I am not racist…. slam me if you will…but you know I make some good points here.

Know better? Leave your own answer in the comments!
