Gray's Isaiah Washington a homophobe?

Question

TR Knight accused Washington of calling him a "*******".

Knight then went public about it and did the Tattletale Act with Neil Giuliano, president of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, who now wants to meet Washington "to discuss the destructive impact of these kinds of anti-gay slurs."

Doesn't that make TR Knight, indeed, a *******??

So this means GAYS NEVER use slurs of any sort? Are GAYS the best-behaved community?

Answer 1

I don't think that Isaiah Washington is a homophobe but in the heat of anger, it looks like he'll say anything whether it'll hurt someone else or not.

Answer 2

i don't understand why you are turning this around and making it seem like tr knight is the "bad guy." "tattletaling" doesn't make someone a "*******." nobody said gays are the best behaved community, it's just not right to say slurs like that.. you can't get away with the n-word can you? who else do you think would enlighten washington? that's glaad's goal, to teach ignorant people.

washington is just an angry person. you watch him on the show.. angry. you watch him in interviews.. angry. i heard he got fired from other works too b/c of his attitude.

ps. tr knight didn't "tattletale" to glaad. he went on ellen to set the record right. if someone said something to you that offends not just you but an entire community of people, you wouldn't keep your silence.. it's just being honest and i applaude tr.

Answer 3

Exactly what do you feel the response would have been if TR had retaliated as Michael Richards did?
Does a reaction to a slur mean the slur is true?

Answer 4

Isaiah Washington needs to learn not to speak

Answer 5

Isaiah need to be let go from the Show
