Katee Sackhoff Never Said She Was Quitting Bionic Woman
Katee Sackhoff is kinda pissed, and she has good reason to be. If you missed the drama, a fan posted some untrue things that Katee supposedly said a a recent convention and it sparked rumors that she was leaving the show because she hates Michelle Ryan. Some sites even took the story further, reporting that Katee fired for her onset "antics."
The only problem was, it wasn’t true. Other fans who heard Katee’s comments at the convention quickly organized to combat the rumors, and one person even posted a transcript of Katee’s comments which apparently never mentioned Ryan at all.
Katee finally cleared up the rumors today, telling TV Guide that she has no intentions of leaving Bionic Woman:
"I have no plans to leave Bionic Woman, and Michelle Ryan is doing a great job. There’s not one ounce of bad blood between us. It’s sad, because you want to connect with the fans, and then they throw it in your face in a negative light."
Hopefully Katee recognizes the all stemmed from one fan, and many other fans jumped to her defense. As for the fan who started it all, there have been several posts on her blog in the past week but she does not mention the error or apologize for all of the trouble. Whether she posted someplace else I don’t know, but the closest thing to an apology on her blog is a comment about how she was at the convention without an assistant and was serving as blogger and photographer and only intended her comments to be "descriptive." Too bad her "description" contained inaccurate statements masquerading as facts.
