Isaiah Washington Stirs Things Up....Again

Wednesday January 17, 2007
It was bad enough several months ago when we heard that Isaiah Washington saying a derogatory remark about fellow actor T.R. Knight’s sexuality caused the fight on the set of Grey’s Anatomy between Washington and Patrick Dempsey, but Washington has taken it a step further and alienated more co-stars and fans. During an interview with the press after the Golden Globes, Washington grabbed the microphone and stated for all to hear, "No, I did not call T.R. (Knight) a fa**ot. Never happened, never happened." Katherine Heigl did not take that statement lightly and was quoted as saying to Access Hollywood, "I'm going to be really honest right now. [Isaiah] needs to just not speak in public. Period." Any guesses as to how long it'll be before Washington receives his walking papers?

T.R. Knight and Katherine Heigl, both need to get a life! They are just trying to get attention. Katherine sound like a empty air head. Knight just want attention for his gay cause.
Which will not happen.

I am appauled at the utter ignorant comment by the previous person by the name of Annette. What has happened in this situation is that a person has been attacked on his sexual orientation. This is a serious issue and it needs to be addressed. Sadly we have many people like this Annette that do not see the bigger issue. If anyone needs to get a life it would be her. Try being a little tolerant of others if you can understand that.

I can’t even believe that someone could listen to all the things that Washington had done in his short career at Grey’s and try and put blame on Katherine Heigl and TR Knight! That is so rediculous when they are two of the nicest people probably on that show. In my opinion Washington had NO right to even say anything about TR and the fact that he is now denying it after already admiting to saying it months ago, well he is just a liar. Hopefully this wont effect sucha great show, because we all know who will be blamed if it does.

Apparently Annette is a low life bigot against gay people. Sadly this is the attitude of so many in our society. Isaac should be fired at once from this show.
