The Less You Know

Just watched a very poorly-written public service announcement during a rerun of Friends.  It was for a cancer-fighting organization and starred someone who's presumably a starlet of some type whom I didn't recognize.

She ended the spot by saying, "Every hour someone dies from melanoma.  It doesn't have to be someone you love."

...which means, of course, that if you play your cards right and donate to the organization she's endorsing, it can be someone someone else loves.  It can be a stranger.  Or maybe, if you're really generous, it can be someone you dislike.  They have that power over melanoma.

Poor logic or poor writing?  Most likely some of both.
