Isaiah Washington is Still Pissed

Isaiah Washington was told his character would not be returning to Greyโ€™s Anatomy a couple weeks back. At first he was mad, but now insists โ€œthey fired the wrong guy.โ€ Isaiah says while itโ€™s true he called T.R. Knight a โ€œfaggotโ€, it is Knight who should have been fired. Us Magazine explains,

In a telephone interview with the Houston Chronicle, Washington claims that it was Knight who propagated the idea that the slur was targeted at him and created a negative work environment.

Washington also told the Chronicle that he believes Knight, 34, likely wanted a salary increase and a more substantive role for his character.

Knight, who acknowledged that he was gay after the incident, later said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that Washington used the epithet against him. โ€œEveryone (on the set) heard it,โ€ he said.

โ€œThatโ€™s a lie,โ€ says Washington, a Houston native. โ€œI used the word during a disagreement with Patrick. I apologized for that. We shook hands and went back to work.โ€

Those gays are sly ones I tell ya. One time a guy told me heโ€™d gladly pay me Tuesday for a hamburger today โ€” it was Thursday โ€” and I fell for it. Turns out he was gay. Connection? I think so.
