Should 'Grey's' Washington "Come Out?"
24 January 2007 | From Studio Briefing | See recent Studio Briefing news
ABC has brushed aside proposals by gay activists that Grey's Anatomy costar Isaiah Washington's character should become gay. The actor was recently called on the carpet by producers of the show, fellow actors, and network executives for using an anti-gay slur on the set of the show and repeating it at the Golden Globes awards. An ABC spokesperson told today's (Wednesday) Philadelphia Inquirer: "That is not part of his story line, and it wouldn't make sense for the character." Larry Gross, director of USC's Annenberg School for Communication, added, "ABC won't do it. ... It would be a constant reminder of this incident and would keep it fresh in the minds of viewers." Washington has previously played a gay man -- in Spike Lee's 1996 film Get on the Bus.
