The Alec Baldwin Voice Mail Scandal, He May Be Getting A Bad Rap - Page 2
So before we rush to judgment, let's try to be open-minded. Two things are obvious that make him better than lots of Hollywood parents. He doesn't kiss his kid's butt and let them run rough-shod, and he is committed to staying involved. Think about all the celebrity dads who don't even bother to acknowledge their kids, let alone remain in their lives.Â
Personally we need more tough love in Hollywood (and the rest of the world for that matter), or we can expect an entire generation of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears' taking over the world. The horror!
Update:Â There have been some statements issued from both sides up on TMZ:
Baldwin's lawyer, Vicki Greene, told TMZ, "Whatever happened yesterday was sealed and confidential. What you're telling me you've got you shouldn't have."
Basinger's publicist,Annette Wolfe, told TMZ: "The voicemail speaks for itself."
 A friend of Alec Baldwin's:  just contacted TMZ to say that the actor called Ireland last week and apologized for his outburst. The friend added that Ireland is the most important thing in the world to Alec and that he is frustrated because over the last six years, Kim has "tried everything" to alienate Ireland from him.
Alec Baldwin's spokesperson: Â released the following statement to the TV show "EXTRA": "In the best interest of the child, Alec will do what the mother is pathologically incapable of doing ... keeping his mouth shut and obeying the court order. The mother and her lawyer leaked this sealed material in violation of a court order. Although Alec acknowledges that he should have used different language in parenting his child, everyone who knows him privately knows what he has been put through for the past six years."
