okay i got a bit of a rant to do here so bear with me

so...there's this whole controversy surrounding GA and the incident concerning Isaiah Washington and his co-stars

for those of you who don't know about it....

apparently back in october, Washington made a comment using the word "f*gg*t" directed towards a fellow co-star and it didn't go well with the rest of the cast and there was some sort of confrontation between him and Dempsey

later Knight ended up coming out of the closet to his cast members and there was this huge thing that stirred up cuz of it placing blame everywhich way for his confession

anyways, appologies were issued, all was forgotten and done with somewhat, then Washington uses that same word again this year at the Golden Globes while trying to deny that previous incident and now there are daggers flying everywhere again

this whole controversy started up again and now there's this whole thing of "will we or won't we fire him"

this is where my beef comes in

i understand that Isaiah's comments were inappropriate and it brought up issues that were thought to have been dealt with by now but obviously not

what i don't understand is why they are making such a big deal out of it

don't get me wrong, i'm not condoning him, the problem i have with this situation is that, in my opinion, ABC is somewhat maybe using this unfortunate controversy to somehow stir up more publicity for GA

they keep saying they will discipline him accordingly, and there are even rumours that he might even lose his job over this

the way i see it is, if they're gonna fire him, then do it already and get on with it

if not, then i see no point in carrying on with this issue, it'll just create more animosity than there already is, it would be best to just drop it once and for all

even though this might create some negative publicity for GA, let's face it publicity is publicity whether it's negative or not

as long as this issue keeps itself in the headlines, it'll still be publicizing the actors of GA and the show itself

i bet that if this happened on the set of any other little show, it would never cause an uproar of this magnitude, but since it happened on the set of one of the most watched shows, it's all of a sudden become a huge deal

i hope i'm not coming across as insensitive cuz i understand how the situation might get people agitated
i happen to have some gay and bisexual friends whom i think are incredible people so don't take me the wrong way

i actually like watching GA, but i just think ABC is just using this situation for their own personal gain and by prolonging their decision on what they're going to do with this actor, they are just dragging it on unnecessarily

if you're gonna fire him then go ahead and do it once and for all, if you're not then don't and make your decision and put and end to all of this once and for all, stop dragging it along

so that's what i think
i could also be wrong about it but i don't care cuz this is my blog for a reason
i write what i'm thinking and people can either agree or disagree with me

so that's the end of my rant.........you may carry on
