Oh and Isiah Washington has checked into rehab and he's not going to get fired from GA.

Disney/Touchstone loves homophobia, it seems.

Damn that Kim Clijsters for ousting Martina! But at least Rafa is out!

According to an insider, Isaiah, who issued an apology for his statements on Jan. 18, agreed to undergo a psychological assessment after talks with ABC executives.

The married 43-year-old father of three was spotted entering the facility at 9 a.m. today (Jan. 24).

And in a statement released today, Isaiah, confirms this saying, “With the support of my family and friends, I have begun counseling. I regard this as a necessary step toward understanding why I did what I did and making sure it never happens again. I appreciate the fact that I have been given this opportunity and I remain committed to transforming my negative actions into positive results, personally and professionally.”

Isaiah, who plays Dr. Preston Burke on the show, became embroiled in controversy for making a homophobic remark about Grey’s castmate T.R. Knight during an on-set argument last fall. (T.R., 33, publicly announced that he is gay after the incident.) The controversy reignited after the Jan. 15 Golden Globe Awards, at which Isaiah denied ever making the comment — but used the anti-gay slur in his denial. link

Should articles written "by Staff" that quote "sources" be given any credibility or respect? I guess it depends on what one thinks of the publication?

Maybe you have some knowledge of TMZ having a record of inaccuracy; I don't. In fact, I remember them breaking the Mel Gibson story, the Nicole Richie drunk driving story, etc.

not doubting their track record, I believe that someone probably came to them with this story, but don't you find it just a little odd that someone is recalling an event that they witnessed over a year ago, and are just now saying something? she was in the news at the time, why not report it then?

Maybe nobody else was interested. Rachael Ray is still small potatoes compared to Gibson, Paris Hilton, or even Mrs. Jones-Reynolds, Esq. The fact that she can get trash reported about her probably speaks to her rising fame.

i am still skeptical as to the motives of the person who reported the incident. if she wasn't that famous, how did the person know who she was?

In 2005 people who watch the Food Network would have been unable NOT to know who Ms. Ray is. After all, her family is apple people from way back! A little nutmeg will make your guests say "hmmmmmmm! What is that?" EVOO...that's extra virgin olive oil!

And Ms. Ray had been a guest on Ms. Winfrey's show several times....

Until Kota got into cooking shows last month (or the month before,) I had no clue who she was.

so, it would have made sense to report the news of her horrible behavior back then.
we can debate this back and forth. i still remain skeptical. i like her, and want to think the best. you don't and prefer to believe the article.

ACK! Luckily I already knew about that tennis result, but please, no tennis spoilers here!! Go Kim!!

Actually, phobias can be treated and people who are homophobic can learn and can change. It would involve sincere effort, for sure, but many people were raised with extreme prejudice against some group or other and people have been known to realize that they were wrong.

Is Isaiah one of them? No idea.

I'm not sure that punishing people for being ignorant is going to promote progress.

I worry more about people with predilections that are far more difficult to change.. pedophila, for instance, yet they are often protected or hidden, or even are defiant and continue to prosper.

I agree with Texannie. If Rachel Ray said those things that story would have been out at the time. Why wait over a year to print it. It's just something to fuel already growing fires.

Is this story any different though? I watched Bernie Mac yesterday. It was a Thanksgiving show. Bernie Mac was cooking his own special turkey on the BBQ. Evil little nephew accidentally turned the heat down on it and it was ruined. Bernie Mac apparently didn't know and ate it anyway. Evil little nephew is running around this whole time almost naked dressed as an American Indian. Bernie Mac becomes very sick and delirious. He begins dreaming about the evil little nephew taunting him and stealing his remote, keeping him from watching the game. In the dream he is fighting evil little nephew for the remote. Evil little nephew jumps into the tv and becomes a cartoon Native American still taunting Bernie Mac. Bernie Mac then jumps into the tv to get him and becomes a cartoon pilgrim with a big gun who keeps shooting cartoon Native American evil little nephew.

If a basically white sit com had done a skit about a white person in that same situation becoming a cartoon slave owner dealing with a cartoon slave in some way, the uproar would be heard around the country. This is just as racist but no one cares. Why is that?

maybe the haitian from Heroes is gonna wipe out Isaiah's memory of being homophobic?
