Prepare for the next news cycle. Nothing matters except Alec Baldwin yelling

at his kid http://www.tmz.com/2007/04/19/alec-baldwins-threatening-message-to-daughter/

I have kids. I come from a family of hot heads. I've heard much, much worse. :tinfoilhat: Media is going to crucify him for being an active liberal. Plus his wife is really awful for releasing this message.

eta: Now CNN has reported on it. Good god.

1. Well, it is pretty unfortunate
that so many outspoken liberal activists also have a tendency to be volatile assholes (i.e. Baldwin, Sean Penn, Cynthia McKinney), causing the media to focus on them while completely ignoring the dozens of volatile assholes on the right. Alec Baldwin yells at his children, okay...when was the last we heard about that Repub candidate who strangled his mistress?

3. I thought of the same thing - he be held up as a "typical" Democrat/liberal.
The Baldwin family, however, isn't exactly known for their even tempers.

I have a hard time with him calling his daughter a "rude pig", but then I again, I have NO idea what she's been doing to him.

At any rate, while that was on NBC, I switched over to CBS' Early Show, and THEY were actually talking about Alberto Gonzales!

4. Pretty harsh stuff.
But I agree his wife is a total bitch for releasing it. I mean the poor girl now has to know the whole world heard her dad reaming her out. SO unfair.
