Isaiah Washington Resembles Those Remarks About The Toxic Culture On “Grey’s Anatomy”
While he won’t admit it, Isaiah Washington’s personal theme song is Toxic by Britney Spears. Every time his name is uttered or he enters a room, that electric violin “neer, neer, neer, neer” riff comes on over god’s loudspeaker. And he doesn’t even have to actually be named for it to play. When Ellen Pompeo spoke to Variety last week to talk about fair pay and the toxic work environment on the set of Grey’s Anatomy, she never once mentioned Isaiah by name. But at the mere mention of “toxic”, in came those strings, and Isaiah came running. Isaiah #tooktotwitter to defend his honor by accusing Variety of performing “yellow journalism”, and claiming Ellen received a pay-out for keeping quiet about something Patrick Dempsey did. Neer, neer, neer, neer!
Here’s the tweet:
#MySleeptweet You see, this is how “yellow journalism” works. @VanityFair needs to keep my name out of this. You gone be dirty? Why don’t you ask Ellen Pompeo how she was paid “hush money” to protect Patrick Dempsey and HIS “toxic behavior”. THIS: https://t.co/r27TS0emnL

I tried to find out what #MySleepTweet is supposed to mean but came up empty handed. It seems to be Isaiah’s personal signature, and he uses it on all his tweets. Maybe he’s signaling that if anything he says ever comes back to bite him, him he’ll employ Roseanne’s Ambien defense.
In case you flunked your History Of Homophobic Outburts 2000-2010 seminar, I’ll remind you that Isaiah solidified his name in the Annuls of Assholes by allegedly calling his Grey’s co-star T.R. Knight a “faggot” during an on-set altercation with Patrick. At first he apologized, but then he repeated the slur, while denying use of the slur, during a live Golden Globes press room interview with the cast. He apologized again but it was too late and he was fired from the show soon thereafter. That was 2006/2007.
Apparently Isaiah spent the subsequent decade writing an “inspirational memoir”, and more recently, praising Donald Trump’s efforts on “urban revitalization” and thwarting the “deep state”. But he’s never lost sight of the real issues facing this great nation of ours. Isaiah’s top priority seems to be making sure everybody knows he was railroaded by Grey’s because he’s a black man.
#MySleeptweet LIAR! RACIST! I did not bring it up. @VanityFair did. You are clearly a lying pathetic troll victimized by the liberal media. Lastly, I don’t need attention, but you clearly do.

Maybe he’s trying to get added to Bill Cosby’s list of approved visitors? If, like me, you wish Isaiah would just spill the damn tea already and let us know What Ellen Saw, too bad. If you want to hear the REAL STORY, you have to listen to the hour long podcast he’s pinned to his page.
#MySleeptweet Like I said, you have no interest in the TRUTH documented in my Pinned Tweet. You want to support the evil of those who want to continue to destroy my name and my brand. Shame on you! You attack me. You attack my family and that will NEVER be okay with me. NEVER.

#MySleeptweet EP can afford not to respond. The TRUTH is all in my Pinned Tweet. The hard reality is that NO ONE can afford to take on any company owned by Disney. That said @VanityFair is now vulnerable to a defamation lawsuit from me. I’m looking into it.
