Now that Mr. Washington has indeed apologized for his "actions and the unfortunate use of words during the recent incident on-set," I will now not be watching this show any longer unless this actor is dismissed. To do otherwise is to condone violent actions laced with homophobia--characteristics I find abhorrent in any individual, let alone any actor who relies on viewers to maintain his very salary. No can do.

I've always liked Mr. Knight and the George characters, but I wasn't surprise that he was gay. I've always thought he was, but it didn't make me feel any different about the character or actor. In fact, when the spoiler came out about one of the interns being bisexual, I really thought it would be George.
Burke Backer

I agree wholeheartedly. I am backing Isaiah 100% until I have any substantiated reason to think differently. I can't imagine that it has been a very good week for Isaiah either. As an aside, I don't believe that a remark from anyone can bring you "out of the closet". If you don't want to be out, deny the remark. If someone called me a name and it does not fit me, I certainly wouldn't have to say it did. Has T.R. ever said that it was because of IW that he decided to announce that he is gay? If I were the folks at GA, I might be upset because this announcement may hurt his credibility as a heterosexual male on the show with some people. I love George. He has some of the funniest and most endearing lines. I also love Burke. I love everything about this character. Let's hope this can all be put to rest soon and we can go on enjoying the show and everyone on it. There are great interactions on the show between George and Burke. I loved when George kept putting his foot in his

I hope this dies down soon it's gotten way out of hand. These guys deserve respect and privacy. Shonda will take care of it to the best of her ability. And for those who just like to start trouble for the heck of it like I said on another post GET A LIFE also keep your mouth closed. THANK YOU from a real GA fan.

i'm glad to hear someone say what you've said. We don't know what really happened. And who cares if TR Knight is gay? That's his business. I applaud his bravery. I also applaud his portrayal of our lovable George. That's all that matters! and George isn't leaving this fan's heart anytime soon!!!!!!!!

Thank you for not feeding into this frenzy. Everytime I turn around there is more media hype and I don't know what to believe. I've adopted an attitude of not believing anything until I hear it straight form the horses mouth so to speak. So until I hear something from ABC, Shonda, or one of the actors, I'm not listening.
