Grey's Anatomy Star Fires Back at Network

It all started when the actress dropped out of contract negotiations (ding, ding!) with the medical drama due to the lack of respect (i.e. money) she felt she was getting. After, ABC released a statement (ding, ding!) saying that Heigl was under contract with the network and was not going anywhere.

Now, per Access Hollywood, Heigl has sent another message (ding, ding!) back to the execs for embarassing her:

"I am embarrassed that this has become a public matter and disappointed that Touchstone felt it necessary to divulge private employment information. I had hoped I would be able to deal with this issue confidentially with my bosses. I dropped out of the renegotiation simply because I wanted to treat myself with the respect I was not getting from them. No matter how unhappy I am about their decision to respond to this publicly, I continue to be passionate about and committed to this character."

Are you going to take that, ABC? I'm about to break out my big white card and magic marker for Round 4.
