Jane Lynch Responds to Ed O'Neill's Question Over Her Emmy Win

Instead of drawing a war of words by hitting back at Ed O'Neill, the Sue Sylvester depicter thanks the 'Modern Family' actor for his criticism.

December 10, 2010

AceShowbiz - Jane Lynch's publicist has refused to be drawn into a war of words with Ed O'Neill after he questioned the "Glee" star's Emmy win - she's thanked him for his outrage instead. Lynch picked up the Outstanding Supporting Actress trophy for her turn as acid-tongued Sue Sylvester in the hit musical TV series at the awards ceremony in August.

"Married... with Children" actor O'Neill caused a stir by insisting Lynch didn't deserve the prize for her "one-note character", claiming the trophy should have gone to his "Modern Family" co-star Sofia Vergara.
