• Go On. Ask Katherine Heigl Anything! (2/10/2007)

  Why is KH garnering so much attention all of a sudden? Have I missed something here? She is just one of an ensemble cast in a hit TV show, far from being the main character, her acting is mediocre at best. Whats the big deal? I'll bet Ellen Pompeo, PD and Sandra Oh are just as fond of and as supportive of TRK, but they don't go shooting their mouths off to the MEDIA for crying out loud, not only because their PR people advise against it but because it only adds fuel to the general chaos and controversy and ultimately achieves nothing. It did not benefit TRK in any way to have KH publicly fight for him - or rather make denigrating comments about IW; far more effective and objective people were in place to do so. They acted and now IW is receiving counselling. In my opinion true bravery and loyalty comes from having the courage to stand ALONE in the face of popular opinion, NOT jumping on the bandwagon where you know you'll be safe. Show your support for your friend quietly but solidly in ways only he can see and appreciate, not on the world stage with the media hanging on to your every utterance.
  

• Isaiah Washington Apologizes, Admits Conduct Unacceptable, Will Seek Help (1/19/2007)

  I also feel I need to wade in and defend IW in this mess. As many have said it is just a sympton of how much power and influence the media wields and how we as thinking human beings need to get a grip, take a step back and view this dispassionately. This was a workplace incident between 3 people that got out of hand because of - the media. They and the network have tried to deal with the fallout and the dust had settled (doubtful) until unfortunately IW made a mistake and here we all go again villifying him from our pulpits. He did not repeat faggot to humiliate TRK or insult gay people, he was simply (mistakenly) trying to end what had obviously been a painful subject for him and everyone else. He went about it in a clumsy manner but I am convinced he meant no harm. What is also sad is how unforgiving and one-sided KH appears to be and how TRK is so not over this despite declarations by all and sundry that they had all "moved on". Clearly it has never been so and I am so afraid that this time there will be no rest till IW's head is served up on a platter. If that happens I do not think I will be watching GA again not because I am trying to make a statement but it will not be as exciting for me. Goodness knows there is so much to watch out there that whatever I do see must have meaning in some form or the other for me to enjoy it. Burke is the best part of the show for me. Hello ladies, it's been a while. Hope you are all well. (despite all the controversy) especially you BB.
  

• Happy Weekend From G. A. Insider! (12/9/2006)

  And to be fair, PD is pretty hot too.
