2013-11-17 Home Front: Culture Wars
Anytime, anywhere, Mr. Baldwin
Kevin Fasick looks like he could break open Alec Baldwin like a cheap shotgun.
My old trainer, Smokin' Joe Frazier, once told me, "Son, an empty wagon makes the most noise."

Alec Baldwin is the emptiest wagon of them all.

This reporter got up close and apparently way too personal for the Bloviator outside his East Village home on Friday -- and the big mouth roared.

His chubby face contorted with rage, Baldwin bellowed at me to back away and then charged like a bull, pushing me into a parked car.

I just let him blow off steam.

#1 Balwin's luck may one day run out. His verbal attack on that lady reporter was a bit much.

#2 Alec has enough money to hire people to do that sort of thing FOR him. He doesn't have to do it himself. Gunzels and Beef aren't that expensive. Oh, and retain a Lawyer and set up a set of hand signals.

#3 Every time he says something aweful they bury for a couple weeks, do a quick PR stint, and promote him.

In point, he has had a number of otherwise career enders with blacks, and they were followed respectively with the Cap1 series with C. Barkley and then again recently with his silliness with the black cop/SLJ new appointee.

It deviates from the successful vikings theme. So why can't cap1 let him go? Why does he not ever lose a job? How did he get a gig with good actors in Red October?

Its the same reason Bill Mahar gets his pass. If any powers do anything more than a bathroom intervention it will draw attention to just how aweful the entertainment industry really is. Remember back with Kanye had a bodyguard punch Perez Hilton because Hilly called Kanye a gay slur? Two A-list - music and television (at the time I think he was co/host of a couple TV shows), no news.

#4 The think I like about Baldwin is that you can always count on him to be a jerk. You need someone to play the part of a jerk in your movie? Baldwin's the guy. You need a buffoon to promote your credit card. There's no bigger buffoon than Baldwin. It's his schtick.
