After selling out Martin Bashir, Alec Baldwin becomes his biggest cheerleader

If you’ve been following the continuing saga of Alec Baldwin’s epic implosion, you’ll remember he was suspended by MSNBC after calling a photographer a “c*cksucking fag.” Or maybe a “c*cksucking fathead,” according to his expert acoustic analysts.

Once Baldwin’s show was canceled, he ripped MSNBC for firing him and keeping Martin Bashir, the now ex-MSNBC host who suggested someone should crap in Sarah Palin’s mouth.

Baldwin eventually changed his tune: He seemed to have pity for Bashir and praised his “aggressive content.” But too late, Alec! Bashir is out at MSNBC, so own it, dude. Or, you know, pretend your initial reaction never happened and tweet more support for the scat porn fetishist:

Bashir created great television.

Then it's like high-sticking in hockey or a late hit in the NFL. Throw a flag. But to end someone's job?

I wish @MartinBashir the best of luck.
Some of these cable venues really are Off-Off Television.

And their need for a reliable, even forced, homogeneity is more apparent than ever. Whatever side of the political aisle they line up on

MSNBC is driven by a mystical/twistical reliance on carriage fees from cable operators, w very low ratings overall.

These cable news execs do what they are told.

Apparently Alec doesn’t have a very long memory about his betrayal of Bashir. Now it’s a race to see who blows up again first, the defecation fantasizer or the crazed, meltdown-prone actor. Our money’s on Baldwin.
