Saying that he was not aware that the producers of Grey's Anatomy used a photo of him during an episode until it actually aired last week, Isaiah Washington has asked the Screen Actors Guild to look into the matter. In the scene, a photo of Washington, in the guise of Dr. Preston Burke, was seen above a newspaper article reporting that Burke had received a prestigious medical award. Washington claims that the photo was used without his consent. The actor was forced off the show last year after he allegedly taunted fellow cast member T.R. Knight with homophobic slurs and other cast members complained that he was difficult to work with.
