ISAIAH WASHINGTON IS FLAMINGLY FIRED FROM GREY'S ANATOMY.

The Associated Press confirmed that the African-Amercian actor has been let go. This is due to his gay tirades at the beginning of the season that led to: cast mate T.R. Knight outing himself pre-maturely on Ellen, a donnybrook with Co-star Patrick Dempsey, and the awkward dealings with his most vocal critic- Knocked Up star Kathrine Hiegel (who's hit film finally gave her leverage in still on-going contract dispute.)

"I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore," Washington stated, quoting the famed media satire Network when ABC TV said that his contract option "was not renewed for next season."

He tried more acts than Don Imus to end the dispute: including therapy, meeting with Gay & ####### Alliance Against Defamation and other gay groups to apologize and those meetings birthed a PSA about words having power.

For now, the recovering bigot is "continuing his charity work in
Sierra Leone, which a DNA test showed to be his ancestral home, and work on
an independent movie."

Later.
