Isaiah Washington apologized to everyone in the world for using the word "faggot," but he never made it clear if he had, in fact, hurled the insult at T.R. Knight during a physical fight with "Grey's" co-star Patrick Dempsey.
You'll recall that last October, Washington allegedly exploded at Dempsey and said, "I'm not your little faggot like T.R."
At the Globes on Monday, Isaiah finally responded and said he never used the word "faggot." That comment drew lots of criticism and now Washington has said he's sorry. What he actually said was, "By repeating the word Monday night, I marred what should have been a perfect night for everyone..." So, he's sorry he said it Monday night. But what about that incident on the set? Is he saying he lied when he claimed he never used the word "faggot" on the set? And, by the way, what does Washington mean when he says "By repeating the word" faggot? Is he acknowledging the lie when he said he never used the word?
All morning, TMZ called multiple people from Washington's camp, and from "Grey's" to get some clarity. Radio silence. No one will comment.
The one thing we can say... what a wuss for not taking his medicine like a man.

#2.....
Didn't Al Sharpton, and the big to do about the Laugh Imn incident f*** up Michael Richards "livlihood"???? When you choose a profession as an actor......when you rely on your "fans"......then you should RESPECT your fan base.....no one should disregard their fans......Grey's Anatomy has a gay fan following.....I know, because I am a lesbian....I watch the show, all of my friends are into it....my gay male friends love McDreamy, McSteamy, Dr. Burke......onviously their fan base is wide spread- but as the gay community grows....they want to be taken seriously, shown the same respect that other races, religions etc. require.....
The world is filled with oodles of problems that are "bigger" then this.....but a lot of the worlds problems start with the lack of UNITY......United we stand, divided we fall.....and people need to "think" about that......adding to the negative....just brings more negative.....
First of all the statement is not worth him losing his job over..with that being said ...send him to whatever GAY organization that is acceptable and take a couple of pic's and let's move on...that's what they do to us African Amer.
Maureen- you are ignorant....you know how many people belive they were born GAY......maybe you shoudlr ead a book....or go to a play ground, and watch some of the boys.....see how they are a little light on their feet......
The "N" word, and the term FAGGOT.......are both negative terms used to refer to a group of people....black= "N".......homosexuals= "Faggots"......
Some of the people are here are so ridiculous, it is shameful......
GAY PEOPLE ARE BY FAR THE MOST DANGEROUS SEGMENT OF SOCIETY.
Far more than the blacks and Jews.
Every time I go to a place where fags are, they try to stick it in my pooper. I'm just trying to get through the day like everyone else. I don't need to be constantly worried about catching Gonorrhea or syphilis every time I bend over at the grocery store. Come on fags, please leave us alone and quit scaring the children.
This is America right? I have the right to walk down the street without every fag in town thinking this is Brokeback Mountain and trying to put it in my pooper.
The world would be a much better place without rainbows - chili bowls - LPGA - WNBA ( dyke ball ) - and Rosie.
Please homo's, let us normal people live without fear of a poop shute attack.

He made a statement, he was addressed about it.....PRETENDED to "get it"....and then he made ANOTHER statement......at the Golden Globes....
For all of the CAPITAL LETTER WRITING FOOLS.....ANSWER THIS:
IF AFTER THE LAUGH IN INCIDENT, THE APOLOGY....IF MICHAEL RICHARDS WENT ON TV, AND MADE ANOTHER HORRIBLE COMMENT LIKE HIS INITIAL SPEER CHUCKING ETC.......WHAT WOULD THE BLACK COMMUNITY DO? WHAT WOULD HAPPEN? WHAT WOULD THEY WANT TO HAPPEN TO MICHAEL RICHARDS? THEN ASK YOURSELF WHY THIS "ACTOR" IS ALLOWED TO DO/SAY WHATEVER HE FEELS......WTF?

faggot- wuss- coward who ever wrote this piece went from writting about a name caller to being one get over yourself okay what are you . your no better by name calling here
Many, many accomplished and talented people in show business are gay. Gay people don't need to get used to hateful slurs. Isaiah needs to learn how to work with gay people in a way which is respectful and dignified, or else change professions. Isaiah needs to "get over" his homophobia or else change careers and surround himself with others who think like he does.
No straight person can say the being gay is "a choice." That's absurd. Only a gay person can explore the origin of their sexuality. But, whether it's a choice or not, hateful name-calling is childish and inexcusable for grown men, particularly when the name is one that has incited so much violence, even murder, over the years. Isaiah is in a public position, and with that comes responsibility. The word he keeps saying has accompanied and incited murders and violence for years. His behavior can't be justified.
Maria, I need to log off PLEASE continue to talk some sense into these FOOLS!!!!!!!!

he has apologized and lets keep it moving
the colored guy did not have any sincerity apologizing the first time and when he aplogized the second time at the golden globes with all the cast members behind him ready to thrown up when he called the guy the f word again imagine if anyone called him the N word, what would happen we would hear from al sharpton and jesse jackson for days on end
