"Anatomy" Lesson: Who's the Liar?

16. I thought all of this was over. Why is he bringing this up now?

17. Two thoughts:
1)If you watch the original season of GA, they are constantly questioning T.R.'s characters sexual orientation.

2)I think Washington is headed for career suicide...

18. I think this whole situation is just very sad!! Grey's Anatomy is the BEST show on television right now! I don't want these drama queens/kings to ruin what a good thing they have going for them! It seems that when cast members of a show get along, the show has much better staying power. They ALL need to get over their egos, pride, and themselves and just simply GET ON WITH THE SHOW!!!
Plus, i thought that "name calling" was something that children did!!
Just be professionals for goodness sake!

20. Isiah can never redeem himself now...he's goose is cooked! He will have a hard time finding a job anywhere now. He shouldn't of been so pompous and he should of been just appreciative that he was part of a hit show!

21. What is the big deal? Someone please tell me?? TR is in fact a faggot. What's the problem? Isiaah called him what he was, so? TR needs to deal with his sexualty like a man, not a little child. People call me a b*tch, I don't go crying to Ellen becuase in fact, I am one. Can't help it, just like TR can't help he's gay.

22. Dude just wants attention , even as negative as it is . Dickhead . Maybe acting better or helping some poor family out in New Orleans would help him . Naw , he'd probably call them White trash F**gots and steal their Government debit card to use it on Cross-dressing Ho's in the french quarter . Guys' a frikin Idiot with a mouth on steroids . Dickhead .

23. I've said it before and I'll say it again. It's funny how a man who himself could be subject to a select epithet of a deameaning sort feels so free to use hate words to describe gay people.

24. Isiah: Come on, it's not like it's your word against TR's? You said it ON THE SET and LOTS of people HEARD YOU!

#4 -- I was very impressed with T.R. on ELLEN. He didn't come off as a wimp at all. He came off as someone who wanted to tell his story without throwing more gas onto the fire. He was a gentleman and told his story without name calling or anything ugly. I really respect him for that.

#8 - You're right: Washington is headed for career suicide if he doesn't do some damage control NOW!! Not cool -- just remember -- people HEARD you!! Lose the denial. Sheesh!

25. If T.R. Knight and Katherine Heigl were so angry about Isaiah Washington saying the word "faggot", why did'nt they confront him about ? He works at the same place and could've let him know how they felt. Instead, they run to Ellen DeGeneres and Access Hollywood to spill their guts about the situation. Real mature move their parts.

26. If T.R. Knight and Katherine Heigl were outraged about Isaiah Washington saying the word "faggot", why did'nt they confront him about it ? They all work at the same place and it never occured to them to pull him aside and let him know how they felt ? Instead, they ran to Ellen DeGeneres and Access Hollywood to spill their guts about the situation. Real mature on their parts.

27. Lisa,

I agree with you 100%. It is a documental medical fact that the men who are the most intolerant towards homosexuals, are in fact hiding some sexual homosexual repression themselves. Issiah Washington, perhaps now might be a good time to come out and tell the world your gay?

28. I think IW needs to own up to his actions. His first official comments following the initial fracas between he and Patrick Dempsey were as follows:

"I sincerely regret my actions and the unfortunate use of words during the recent incident on set," Isaiah says in the statement. "Both are beneath my own personal standards and do not reflect the great personal regard I have for my fellow cast mates and crew, whom I believe to be some of the most talented in the entertainment industry. I have nothing but respect for my coworkers, as people and artists, and have apologized personally to everyone involved."

Notice the phrase "the unfortunate use of words"...so yes, in fact he does admit to saying something (which we all know was the "F" word). So all this double-talk and "I love being gay" and "Patrick and I sing Ebony and Ivory every night" was just a weak attempt to hide the truth. Additionally, if you watch the video from AH when the entire cast is being interviewed (sans TR and CH) it is evident that Patrick is uncomfortable with IW manic behavior.

Don't hold your breath for an apology. I expect that ABC will push Shonda to fire him (she won't sacrifice herself for IW) and he will go into rehab, hire a new publicist and in a few years come out of the closet. Any thoughts??

29. What an insentive jerk.
Washington owes yet another apology.
Not the brightest bulb in the box. Someday he'll get it.

30. It seems to me that Mr. Knight and Miss Heigl had ( or still have ) the oppurtunity to address their feelings about Mr. Washington's use of the word "faggot" at the very event that they all attended that evening. But, for some reason , they decided to talk to Ellen DeGeneres and Access Hollywood instead. Are things so bad that these grown people can't sit down and talk about what ails them or are they so wraped up in their narcisisim that the idea of talking to one another without cameras present is scary ?
