Isaiah Washington helped Star Jones inaugurate her new, self-titled Court TV series. The interview’s perhaps one of the most complex, nuanced pieces of television journalism ever.
One sharp thinker, Jones employs sports metaphors to discuss former high school basket baller Washington’s infamous faggot flingingt.
SJ: Do you know how to pad yourself appropriately so that when the hit comes?
IW: It depends. There’s a technique called the crack back designed to cut you off at the knees before you can respond to it.
SJ: What happens when you do not evade the ‘crack back’?
IW: You get hurt. And you’re taken out the game completely.
Voice Over: And Isaiah almost found himself completely out of the game in the aftermath that followed the dustup on the set of Grey’s Anatomy.
SJ: Did you ever feel in this last year of your life that the crack back technique was being used?
IW: Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely.
SJ: Were you blind sided at all, Isaiah?
IW: That’s a good question.
We disagree. We also have our own question: can the crack back technique also be referred to the cracker back technique? As in, I’m going to get that cracker back for taking me down?

And that really was one of the dumbest interviews i have ever heard – softball and abstract. In fact it was so utterly devoid of substance and critical interviewing skills that Star is ready to join the Washington Press Corps.

Hot man who should simply be seen and not heard cause all he does is dig himself deeper and deeper into a lack-of-credibility/lack-of-integrity hole. Now he seems to be saying that it’s not just the “Gay White Racist Mafia” that his friend Jasmyne Cannick claims crucified him unfairly but that the Grey’s ensemble had something to do with it.

Jeesh people let it go. We know what Jones and Washington are about so what’s new here? Did you really expect something different?

Shame on Start Jones, though. The rhetoric she uses is just ridiculous and only serves to perpetuate the division between blacks and gays. Clearly, her alien race is not here to bring mankind together.
