It was nearly a year an a half ago when I first posed what I thought was a pretty simple question. I asked, "Who's the biggest jerk in Hollywood? Since that time the list of potential candidates would appear to have now increased substantially with many now overtly vying for the title. But still my nominee for who's the biggest jerk remains, as it was then, Alec Baldwin. It was back in 2011 that I first suggested that the winner of that dubious title should be Baldwin. That was shortly after he took it upon himself to launch into one of his trademark Twitter binges, this one in particular had to do with Michelle Malkin's being referred to as a "chink." His latest episode of rather bizarre behavior occurred when It seems that Baldwin was approached by a Post reporter while out walking his dogs outside his East 10th Street residence at around 10:50 a.m. Sunday morning. He was asked to comment on a lawsuit against his wife, Hilaria, involving her work as a yoga instructor. The supposed 'star' of the rather idiotic TV show, "30 Rock," then proceeded to grab the reporter, Tara Palmeri, by her arm. According to Palmeri, who happened to record the confrontation, Baldwin told her "I want you to choke to death." Palmeri told police, for whom she played her audiotape of the conversation. Baldwin was also caught in a photograph during a verbal spat with Ms. Palmeri.
Baldwin also 'allegedly' called a black Post photographer a racial epithet, a "crackhead’’ and a "drug dealer’’ during the same confrontation that pretty escalated to the point where it prompted police to intervene. Baldwin then called G.N. Miller, a decorated retired detective with the NYPD’s Organized Crime Control Bureau and who is now a staff photographer for The Post, a "coon, a drug dealer,’’ Miller’s police statement said. Boy, you have to admit, Baldwin is one classy guy. NOT!! Anyway at some point, Miller showed Baldwin his ID to prove that he’s a retired NYPD cop, which Baldwin dismissed as simply being a "fake." And as is always whenever dealing with these imbecilic entertainment types, it was only minutes later, that Baldwin was ranting about the entire episode on Twitter. He Tweeted, "Thank u 2 NYPD officers who came to my home 2day so that I could file a formal complaint against NY Post "photographer’’ who assaulted me.’’ In another post, Baldwin referred to Miller, for unknown reasons, as "Ralston," writing, "Moments after I tweet about the Post, Ralston, the ex-crackhead ‘photographer’ shows up at my door w 1 of Murdoch’s nieces in tow." He added, "Ralston claims he’s ex NYPD!! That can’t be!!! Ex NYPD don’t become crackhead, ex jailhouse paparazzi!" Baldwin eventually removed most of his juvenile posts.
Miller also said the that Baldwin bumped him in the chest during their little encounter, although Baldwin told cops that the photographer had "pushed into him,’’ and according to Baldwin’s complaint he "asked [Miller] to keep his distance.’’ But Miller said Baldwin was the one getting "too aggressive,’’ so he showed him his retired-cop ID. Baldwin called the ID a "fake’’ and added Miller was a "crackhead" and a "drug dealer" who "just got out of jail," Miller said. And if you can believe it, which I can, Baldwin even went so far as to actually some rather "disparaging remarks’’ about Miller’s mother. But Baldwin wasn't done even then, because as oblivious pedestrians walked by, Baldwin told Miller to "suck my d--k." But Baldwin, determined to put on a demonstration that should leave doubt in no one's mind regarding just how big of a jerk he is, also walked up to random people — including some hapless dad pushing his kid in a stroller — and told them Miller was an ex-con and drug dealer, Miller said. "He was saying some serious racist stuff," Miller said. "He said some choice words about my mother, and he was telling people in the street that I’m a drug dealer. "He could have said a lot of other stuff. But he used all of the stereotypes associated with black people." Miller worked for the NYPD for nearly 15 years, spending most of his time in narcotics.
Baldwin’s spokesman, some dweeb by the name of Matthew Hiltzik, called Miller’s accusations "completely false.’’ And Baldwin, again through Hiltzik, denied making any racist remarks, adding, "That’s one of the most outrageous things I’ve heard in my life.’’ But let's face it, Baldwin does have quite a history of making rather inappropriate comments, shall we say, to photographers. Last June, the day before his wedding, Baldwin shouted to a black photographer on the street, "You gotta back up there Rodney." Needless to say the photographer’s name wasn’t Rodney. I think it fair to say that with each one of these outbursts provides a bit more proof that Baldwin is, in fact, a certifiable loon in desperate need of a rubber room in one of the finer psychiatric facilities that we have in this country. But because he's one of our enlightened entertainment types, he'll likely be able to avoid the level of treatment that he is so desperately in need of. He's nothing more than a psychotic bully and yet there are still companies who wish to use him in their commercials. Personally I wouldn't purchase any product from any company who would think it appropriate to have Baldwin as their spokesperson in their commercials. Obviously he's a racist, but because his roots are on the left it apparently is no big deal. Such behavior simply to be expected from this caliber of people.
