ALEC BALDWIN MAY JUST WALK EVERYWHERE FROM NOW ON
December 8 2011
Los Angeles, CA – Alec Baldwin has never been a man to keep his thoughts or his feeling to himself. In fact, Baldwin is pretty much a loudmouth, wearing his emotions on his sleeve, which has frequently landed him in trouble with the public.
Easily the most damning of such situations was the recorded phone call in 2007 in which he was caught screaming at his daughter. For many, that revealed Baldwin as a boorish and possibly dangerous hothead, something people around him had known for while.
Baldwin, though, is talented and most genial when not yelling and that has allowed him to push past the worst of his personal outbursts and still have a great deal of success. Now though a new incident in which he was booted off an American Airlines flight and, in trying to explain the situation, insulted Greyhound bus lines, Baldwin’s career may actually be in jeopardy with his latest outburst which may well leave him with no way to travel outside of walking, seriously putting a crimp on his ability to get to and from work.
“Some flight attendants still have some remnant of the old idea of service. The rest walk the aisles of an airplane with a whistle around their neck and a clipboard in their hands and they have made flying a Greyhound bus experience,” said Baldwin, amongst other things, about his problematic flight.
It is that latter comment about Greyhound that may have further exacerbated the problem, potentially to the point that the actor may be forced to walk for the foreseeable future.
“I don’t know if he’s ever been on one of our buses (it doesn’t sound like it), but there are about 17.6 million people who travel with us every year who I’m sure wouldn’t share [his] feelings,” said Greyhound after the slight from the actor.
Baldwin had been travelling back to New York to continue working on his hit show, but may now be left with no way to get back to the right coast with other carriers in multiple forms of travel likely reticent to take on the actor, particularly at the this stage.
“We are having trouble with the travel arrangements. Flights are an issue obviously, and even if Alec wanted to take the bus that is pretty much out. Like most actors, Alec refuses to take the train for obvious reasons and we are having trouble with car 
travel,” said a spokesperson for the actor. “New York is a long walk and Alec only has one pair of shoes. We are finding that anyone in any field that involves travel is having trouble with this situation.”
Gas stations across the country have mostly unified in refusing to sell fuel to the actor. So too have shoe sellers, leaving Baldwin with a long walk on old shoes.
“We’ll get there. This will all blow over eventually, it always does. Alec causes these types of problems all the time and people forgive him because, well, I mean how could you not. I mean its Alec Baldwin for God’s sake. It’s not like everyone out there is a Republican,” continued the spokesperson. “he’sactually looking forward to the walk. He’ll be able to play with his phone in peace and see our great country all at the same time.”
The people who ushered Baldwin off the plane are believed to be Republicans.
