...magnificent season for gaffes. Consider just the past couple of weeks: Barbara Boxer ostensibly dissed Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice for not having an "immediate family." A hapless Pentagon official named Charles Stimson called on American corporations to fire any law firm that represented terrorist suspects. An actor on Grey's Anatomy used the word faggot at the Golden Globe awards in the course of denying that he had used this word about another member of the cast in October. French President Jacques Chirac said it wouldn't be so bad if Iran got a nuclear bomb "or perhaps...
...apology is almost inevitable. These are the varieties. Stimson of the Pentagon took the false-impression route: he is so sorry that some people might have inexplicably got the impression that he meant what he obviously did mean when he said what he said.

The Grey's Anatomy actor, Isaiah Washington, chose the therapeutic option. He can't "defend nor explain" what he said, "there are issues I obviously need to examine within my own soul," he knows that "a mere apology" won't "end this," and so on and on. "Can I stop...
...Matthew has elevated crying to an art, where somehow it's a form of badassness. He never cries because he's sad. He cries because he wants to hit someone," Lindelof says. "I can't think of any other hero characters who have cried. If Patrick Dempsey cried on Grey's Anatomy, people would be like, 'Meredith, do not waste your time with that crybaby.'" When he's not crying, Fox is stone cold, silently holding back. "He understands stillness, which is a rare trait in an age of big performances," says McG, who directed Fox in the recent football...
