Have we talked about the Alec Baldwin interview? Can we?

Posted by ty97 Feb 24 '14, 10:46

I know the tendency is to think him a bit of a dick (and he does a lot in the interview to aid people in thinking of him that way) but he raises an excellent point about the TMZ-ificaiton of 'news'. And our general rush to judgment as well. (So he might be a dick, but he's a dick with some valid points)

Responses:

I'm so over him. Other celebs can live in New York and manage to not make asses of themselves. He's doing it wrong. -- nm - Mop (205 lbs) Feb 24, 11:45
So he rails against the TMZification of news, but then is disappointed when the guy who said someone should shit and piss in Palin's mouth is forced - IrishStephen (Master of The Filthy Jock Strap) Feb 24, 10:59 1
- Also, regarding the dustup with the photographer (language inside) - IrishStephen (Master of The Filthy Jockstrap) Feb 24, 11:10
did you see him in NYMag this week? -- nm - peggy ann mcamanda Feb 24, 10:54 1
- Yeah, I read that last night -- nm - ty97 Feb 24, 11:06
It makes me sad that even the good Baldwin's are going bad. -- nm - Spawn Lord Feb 24, 10:52 16
- He just comes off as a grumpy old man. - ty97 Feb 24, 11:15 15
  - I wonder why it never occurs to him to just STFU. -- nm - Diva Feb 24, 11:18 2
    - Because he firmly believes that everything he says is important and the media enable that. - spamlet Feb 24, 11:41 1
      - he's so wrong. -- nm - Diva Feb 24, 11:42
  - I was also referring to Adam Baldwin, but yeah. -- nm - Spawn Lord Feb 24, 11:16 11
    - Here, in case people have no clue what I am talking about. -- (link) - Spawn Lord Feb 24, 11:36 10
      - got halfway through and got all like who the f cares -- nm - zeitgeist Feb 24, 12:29
      - Awful. the Nick Searcy stuff is bigoted bullying at its worst. -- nm - Inigo Feb 24, 11:56 6
        
        Nick Searcy has been a twitter asshole for a while now. - Kim Pine Feb 24, 12:01 3
        
        That realy sucks. He was probably my second favorite character on Justified. I hope I can forget about it when watching season 5. -- nm - Inigo Feb 24, 12:09 2
        
        Adam generally hasn't been as bad. Searcy is definitely a "clearly I'm better than you because I have a bunch of stuff" bully. - Kim Pine Feb 24, 12:12 1
        
        I followed adam for a few years. It got to a point where I simply couldn't. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 24, 13:56
        
        Man, that sucks. I already can't stand Adam Baldwin, and now I have to add Searcy to that list ... :( -- nm - Beryllium Feb 24, 11:59
        
        Agreed. And the original story I saw later had him getting into it with a girl as well (IIRC... I was drinking). -- nm - Spawn Lord Feb 24, 11:58
      - yeesh. -- nm - Diva Feb 24, 11:46
      - Yeah, not at all surprising from him, other than he'd be stupid enough to do that in public. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 24, 11:43
he is very very very smart, and, very arrogant. -- nm - Andie Feb 24, 10:52
so the dick has a point while possibly being well rounded. -- nm - Max Feb 24, 10:51
