01.17.2007 ISAIAH WASHINGTON HATES FAGGOTS

In the Golden Globes press room Monday night as the cast and crew of "Greys Anatomy" gathered to discuss winning the award for best something or other, series creator Shonda Rhimes was asked about the October on-set incident during which actor Isaiah Washington referred to cast mate T.R. Knight as a "faggot".  While not in the closet at the time, Knights sexuality was certainly never a topic of discussion in the media until then.  Knight says this incident basically forced him out of the closet, but in this video taken Monday night, Washington steps in front of the microphone and says, "No I did not call T.R. a faggot.  Never happened."

Which is news to the "faggot".  T.R. is on today’s (Wednesdays) episode of "the Ellen DeGeneres Show" and says that Washington is lying.  A transcript from today's show:

 Ellen: How long ago did this happen?
 T.R.: Early October
 Ellen: So Patrick Dempsey and Isaiah Washington are on the set.  A scene is about to start and they start getting in a fight and words..
 T.R: Not because I was late.
 Ellen: And Isaiah Washington says what to Patrick Dempsey?
 T.R: He referred to me as a faggot.
 Ellen: As a faggot?
 T.R: Yes
 Ellen: So you're around the corner and hear this?
 T.R: It's an awesome word isn't it? (joking)
 Ellen: It is.  It really is unbelievable. It's bad enough in school yards that happens but, grown men
 T.R.: Everyone heard it.

Movies and TV have taught me that most black people are either judges or police captains, and that the only people who use the word "faggot" are rich white guys who play squash and work on Wall Street, so this is all pretty surprising.  Seems to me that someone (ahem, I'm looking at you Isaiah) needs a poster of a black kid holding a dove or maybe my figurine of Jesus playing soccer with a Latino and an African child.  Because it's true, Jesus and a soccer ball can achieve almost anything.

    “Excuse me for speaking so bluntly sir. But those fags make me want to puke my fucking guts out.”

    “No sir, I did not call that man a FAGGOT… I called him ANALLY MOTIVATED. Please get my quotes correct.”

    In words of a wise man (OK, a guy who had just gotten his butt kicked by the LAPD), “Can’t we all just get along?”

    Hmmmm? Censorship? On wwtd? Can it be true? ‘Cause I can’t post my message yet this shite gets thru.!

    Honestly, maybe this will lead to this guy’s character leaving the show, becuase Ive really grown tired of him and the Asian girl’s whole deal. Now, after admitting that I know way too much about this show, I will now go look for my testicles.

    bondi: Some domain names don’t get posted due to spammers, I’m sure one time the N-word also didn’t… apart from that I’ve never had any problems posting.

    What. A. Fucking. Douchebag.

    I had heard that homeboy repeated his slur during the Golden Globes, but I didn’t believe it - I figured he couldn’t be THAT stupid. But then I saw this video - props for posting it. That dude is an idiot. It’s so awesomely ironic when black people are bigots!

    No, not the N-word. Heaven forbid! I’m trying to ixsnay the Kramer say, as in a number of years past a certain group of people, namely us, would have orientated said person of the F-word persuasion with their head toward the ground and inserted a piece of cutlery in said person’s nether region.

    straight men should be happy that there are gay men out there because it’s less competition for women. but secretly i think they recent that gay men can get ass all day long without the hassle that straight men have with women. no flowers, no candy, no after sex cuddling, no pretending to like your bitchy girlfriends and having to hold your hand in public like you don’t know how to walk upright on your own. no obligation to call again, no need to talk about “feelings”. no ball and chain , “let’s buy a cookie cutter house in the burbs”, no “you can only have sex with me no matter how old, raggedy, and fat i get until the day you die”………….

  16. T-bird 01/17/2007 11:40

    anyway, can we get some more tittays around here?

    It’s a well known fact that people who call other people fags are generally closet homosexuals themselves. I should know, in highschool a lot of people used to call me a fag and it turned out that they are all closet homosexuals.

    Dear Brendan Durden. I just want to take this opportunity to say that I never look at the advertising, let alone buy anything, so I hope you feel like the bigger man, earning money off my click power. That is all.

    I think it is funny that Bondi_Cigar is acting like a shit covered Dildo on a fag thread. Is there hidden meaning in there somewhere?

  20. Max02 01/17/2007 12:00

    He’s probably on the “Down Low” and gets upset when a strong white man stands up for his sexuality. Come out already Isaiah! Stop sitting in the back of the bus.
