Because Every Other Blogger Is Mentioning Isaiah Washington

Isaiah Washington says T.R. Knight should have been fired. "They fired the wrong guy."

Isaiah sounds like a kid. He's basically saying, 'he started it!' Isaiah claims T.R.'s the one who decided to broadcast the idea that the slur was targeted at him and thus created a negative work environment.

He accused T.R. of wanting a salary increase and a more meaningful role. In regards to Knight's appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show where he confirmed that Isaiah used his sexuality against him, Washington asserts: "That's a lie. I used the word during a disagreement with Patrick. I apologized for that. We shook hands and went back to work."

Washington pointed out that he also participated in a public service announcement where he spoke out against homophobic, racist and sexist language: "I did everything I said I would do. I offered to go to counseling, to do a public service announcement. I wanted everyone to know I was remorseful."

He says that he was shocked when he found out that ABC would not renew his contract:

"That was a shock. I did everything they told me to do, including not saying anything, and then they didn't renew my contract. That's not fair."

Washington went on to say that he made three errors in judgment: "believing the cast of Grey's Anatomy were like family; believing I had the freedom to express myself with family and that we could resolve our issues; and trusting ABC was going to take care of me."

When Washington found out that he was fired, he released a statement saying: "I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore."

Now he says: "I'm not angry. I'm disappointed."

Isaiah also confirmed that he's considering filing a lawsuit. "I have to clear my name. My livelihood, my honor and dignity and my name have been so challenged."

I hesitated to cover this because Isaiah makes me nauseous. I'm not even going to make fun of him, there's nothing to make fun of.

Isaiah made a blunder and he's paying for it severely, it's sad. What's even worse? Isaiah doesn't know what "shut the fuck up" means and his reps are misguiding him. If they make muzzles for Saint Bernard's I'm sure Isaiah's head can fit into one of those things. Just wrap that shit around his neck and he'll be good to go! But ya gotta wire his jaw shut first just in case.
