Arrest Warrant Issued for (Ben) Affleck

Mods - searched for this, couldn't see it anywhere. Sorry if it's a dupe.

'Sometimes, as Ben Affleck may attest, it's handy to be hounded by the press. Affleck's publicist says there are "at least 50 paparazzi and others" who can document that the in-the-spotlight superstar was at his estate in Georgia on a day last month when a woman says he threatened her in North Carolina.

"This whole thing is absurd," publicist Ken Sunshine said Monday.

"This whole thing" is a misdemeanor warrant issued for Affleck's arrest on Saturday after Tara Ray, of Kure Beach, North Carolina, told a local magistrate that the Sum of All Fears star had "communicated threats" to her on September 25...

He's never heard of this person, he's never met her," Sunshine said of Ray, who, for her part, told the Associated Press she's been romantically involved with the actor since February 2002. "'

2. At least Affleck can remember where he was, unlike Ahhnold.

3. I guess there's no such thing

as bad publicity when your career is heading toward the terlit.

4. *sigh*

Can no one act civil anymore, or does fame destroy that part of the brain?

6. um, you're assuming this woman is right?

He's already said he wasn't even in that STATE on 9/25. I'm not an Affleck fan (horribly overrated actor), but this woman sounds like the same kind of loon who went after Tucker Carlson a few years ago (the one and only instance where I was moved to feel any sympathy for that geek).

Geez, folks...

7. Just in time to monopolize the airwaves and overshadow the Recall!!

Great timing.
