Valerie Harper Cancer

OK; yeah, so I watched the special on Valerie Harper's cancer situation tonight.  Poignant, Interesting, Familiar.  But the fact is that if she hadn't been a long-ago TV star, the 74-year-old actress would have been completely ignored by Meredith and everyone else.

NBC, I'd much rather have watched a show about a young, unemployed, unlovable homeless guy who had survived undiagnosed cancer for 10 years with no health insurance than Valerie's story (sorry, Valerie).
