By repeating the word Monday night, I marred what should have been a perfect night for everyone who works on &#8216;Grey&#8217;s Anatomy.&#8217; 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&#8217;ve asked for help.<\/p><!--CusAds-->\n<p>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&#8217;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&#8217;ve opened.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds--><p>T.R.&#8217;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.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"0ef8bfa44cafabceb297ac3097736deb\" data-index=\"3\" style=\"float: none; margin:0px 0 0px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\r\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-3375789278566919\";\r\n\/* Celebrity_inpost_300x250 *\/\r\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"1568606040\";\r\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\r\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\r\n\/\/-->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\r\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\r\n<\/script> <br\/>\r\n<br\/>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\nch_client = \"dragonden\";\r\nch_width = 550;\r\nch_height = 250;\r\nch_type = \"mpu\";\r\nch_sid = \"celebrityscoop_betweenposts2\";\r\nch_color_site_link = \"#816689\";\r\nch_color_title = \"#816689\";\r\nch_color_border = \"#FFFFFF\";\r\nch_color_text = \"#212121\";\r\nch_color_bg = \"#FFFFFF\";\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script src=\"http:\/\/scripts.chitika.net\/eminimalls\/amm.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br\/>\r\n<br\/>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It seems that Greys Anatomy star Isaiah Washington set off a firestorm over his comments at Mondays Golden Globes.
