Perceived racial slur on Sitcom causes HUGE uproar

Filipino med schools were slighted. (I saw a paper towel dispenser with the graffitti "Phillipine Medical School diplomas" written on it once)

The kicker is that a Filipino attorney (Rodel Rodis in San Francisco) said the apology by ABC did not go far enough, and in a future episode, a script needs to be written in which Teri Hatcher "Needs to ask specifically for a Phillipine doctor, because they are the BEST"

LOL

One bite of the apple is not enough, there needs to be 2 or 3

Ed Asner said "Tojo got the Mojo" on Leno's show the other night. Was the kid even Japanese? Wish I could find a clip. It was disgusting.

Since when did "medical students in the Phillipines" define a race?

I would have loved to see an Archie Bunker/Sanford and son show.
