You think an 11 year old contacted the press??? So mommy never knew until she released it? Maybe mommy should get some spyware.

An 11-year-old daughter of two very famous celebrities? "Media savvy" would only be the tip of the iceberg.

While I accept that people can lose their tempers and parenting is an incredibly hard job (and one I have chosen not to take up so far because of my personality) I don't think it was an appropriate message to leave on an 11 year old's phone.

Any parent that lowers themself to the level of the child will lose respect very quickly. Calling her a pig on an answerphone is not the same as losing it when she is standing in front of him and saying it in the heat of the moment. I only heard the message once, but I certainly thought the tone was threatening - when he said that he would be seeing her soon (a week I think) and they were going to have it out face to face. Then again I was listening to it from my personal point of view of a daughter - if my Daddy had ever left me a message like that it would have provoked a near-hysterical reaction on my part. Perhaps that's because my father was slow to anger and wasn't prone to over-reaction.

It does seem a shame that with all the effectively fatherless children out there, a man who probably loves his daughter very much is pushed beyond reason by not being allowed an open relationship with her. But I agree that he should get some help before being able to contact her again.

Yep, both scum. I remember hearing years ago that Kim Basinger said about Neil Simon: what does HE know about comedy?

Stupid twat. I don't care who released it. Now I know Baldwin is an ass, I am now sure I was right that Basinger is a bitch, and if the daughter released it it's just another apple not falling far from the freak-tree.

Anybody else think Baldwin was high on something when he made the call?

Meanwhile, I'm remembering what Kim Jong-Il sang about Alec Baldwin in Team America: World Police.

And the guy never did use that plane ticket to "leave the country" as he said he would...

He sounded drunk or high and if she is in a fight to protect her child from him it is smart, right a good idea to expose him for the man he IS.
If he does not want people to know he is an abuser he should not abuse. It is very simple.

Ms Basinger claims she did not release the tape. Wonder who did it? I bet Clodfobble was right when she said the daughter.

Either way... I have no issue with it. It is the truth.

I guess that's true. I reacted too suddenly to the whole thing at first because I have no respect for Kim anyway...but an abusive person is an abusive person, and Alec sure sounded like one to me. Brings shudders.

And I always liked him in movies.

It is one piece of the truth. You haven't heard the rest of the truth, and don't know if this piece of the truth is representative of the whole.

There is no excuse for him talking to her like that, he is the adult. Whatever issues he has with her mother are not between he and his daughter.

He was addressing the issues he has with his daughter... her being a manipulative little cunt... just like the people that raised her.

So what? That means nothing.

I agree with that. But it has nothing to do with whether this one voice mail is "the truth."
