Isaiah Washington, who got canned from "Grey's Anatomy" for using the gay
slur against co-star T.R. Knight, criticized ABC for firing Brooke Smith, who
played a fledgling lesbian on the show. Though show creator Shonda Rhimes
insists Smith did not get fired because of her Sapphic storyline, Washington
says the dismissal was "harsh.""The fact is that, just before the holidays, you have a mother, a wonderful actress removed from a steady income without the proper reasoning behind it," he tells TVGuide.com. [sl]
Okay, that's sad we gess, but let's go back and hang out with that quote a little: "who got canned...for using THE gay slur!" The slur? There's only one now? Is that supposed to be subtle, Star-Ledger humor? I'm guessing faggot is THE gay slur du jour these days, popularized by Isaiah Washington's rage issues and certified by the Star-Ledger, approved by America. Next time someone calls me a flamer or colon-raider, I'll laugh in their face and be all, "Haha, you're stupid that's not even the gay slur, dad."
