I’ve been getting a lot of feedback on my post about Alec Baldwin and the message that he left for his daughter when she didn’t pick up the phone when he expected.
Man that was some rant. Have you heard the tapes of the message? Honestly it was just terrible. I can only imagine how hearing that message must have made his daughter Ireland feel.
Parents shouldn’t talk to their kids that way, especially if the child isn’t the real source of the problem.
I think he should take Italian Classes. I’m sure he won’t stop ranting like that, so at least if he does it in a beautiful language like Italian it might sound a bit better.
Isaiah appologizes
It seems that Greys Anatomy star Isaiah Washington set off a firestorm over his comments at Mondays Golden Globes. He’d been questioned about having previously called co-star T.R. Knight a faggot and he used the offensive word again when talking with reporters.
“I apologize to T.R., my colleagues, the fans of the show and especially the lesbian and gay community for using a word that is unacceptable in any context or circumstance. By repeating the word Monday night, I marred what should have been a perfect night for everyone who works on ‘Grey’s Anatomy.’ I can neither defend nor explain my behavior. I can also no longer deny to myself that there are issues I obviously need to examine within my own soul, and I’ve asked for help.
I know the power of words, especially those that demean. I realize that by using one filled with disrespect I have hurt more than T.R. and my colleagues. With one word, I’ve hurt everyone who has struggled for the respect so many of us take for granted. I welcome the chance to meet with leaders of the gay and lesbian community to apologize in person and to talk about what I can do to heal the wounds I’ve opened.
T.R.’s courage throughout this entire episode speaks to his tremendous character. I hold his talent, and T.R. as a person, in high esteem. I know a mere apology will not end this, and I intend to let my future actions prove my sincerity.”
