Liberal privilege. Update to this story.
Via Daily Wire:
The New York Post, whose reporters know home-towner Alec Baldwin best, had this fantastic front page on Saturday.
LIVID! FROM NEW YORK! IT’S ALEC BALDWIN.” The sub-headline was even better: “Rageaholic punches man over parking.”
The lead, like so many the Post has nailed with snarky perfection, killed:
The Bloviator strikes again! Notorious hothead Alec Baldwin slugged a driver in the face when the motorist pulled in to park at a spot that was being held for Baldwin, cops said.
“He just got into an altercation with someone over a parking [spot],” said one witness to the Friday afternoon fight outside Baldwin’s building in the Village, and would only identify himself as Albert. “It’s like a scene from ‘Goodfellas.’”
You can almost hear Baldwin saying, “Funny how? Funny like I’m a clown? I amuse you? I make you laugh? I’m here to f**king amuse you? What do you mean funny? Funny how? How’m I funny?”[…]
Everyone (at least the liberal media) is up in arms over President Trump, saying his rhetoric prompts violence. But Baldwin (who once said to his 12-year-old [or 11-year-old daughter, he wasn’t sure] that she was a “rude, thoughtless little pig”) just keeps getting away with his violent ways, a lot like photog-punching and Madonna-beating Sean Penn.
And you can bet that Baldwin will walk on this latest charge, which he has denied.
“The assertion that I punched anyone over a parking spot is false. I wanted to go on the record stating as much,” he wrote on Twitter, saying the “negative charges” were “clickbait entertainment.”
“Fortunately, no matter how reverberating the echos, it doesn’t make the statements true,” Baldwin wrote.
