Maybe the child did, after all he embarrassed her. She very well, even at 11 yrs old could have said enough is enough. If the daughter released it maybe it was a cry for help, who knows. It sure doesn’t make him look like a loving father. IMO he is a very mean, unstable creep.

that is exactly what happend. Sean Hannity believes it wasn’t Kim who leaked the voice mail. Kim submitted this voice mail in the court. A court clerk could have sold it to TMZ for a lot of money easily!

Thank you rawhide. This guy is an absolute schmuck inside and out. Kim must be asking herself what she ever saw in this @sshole. What a price to pay for a HUGE mistake.

We’ve only tipped the bucket on what Alex is capable of. I like to see him in a fight with a REAL man.

Ya know what? When I first heard the voicemail that Baldwin left for his daughter, I was disgusted. Now I’m wondering if Kim Basinger isn’t equally disgusting. Parental alienation anyone?

Of course she did. It was on HER phone!

No, it was on the girl's own cell phone. I wouldn't be surprised if she forwarded it to a friend or two... under the pretense of "See what a creep my dad is..."

It’s disturbing. Here’s part of the Letterman appearance. Listen to Dave toward the end.

Perhaps he will think twice before leaving a threatening voice mail. I’d wager this isn’t the first time the ex and the girl have had to listen to that lunatic rant at them.

Think this was one of those times that Karma made a play. When you look back over their history (all over the net) Baldwin got his come uppance. I think ue's a wife beater to boot, and A POS. She may not be much, but she deserved better than him (no man hit's a woman).

Some of the stuff from "the net"...


Baldwin was ordered to pay $4,500 to a celebrity photographer after he allegedly punched the man in eye for stalking the couple after Ireland was born and left the hospital.


From 2005...

In a statement released late yesterday, Basinger storms, "Everyone knows about Alec Baldwin's behavioral problems - his anger, his rages - they are, unfortunately, legendary. If his relationship with his daughter is fractured, there is only one person to blame and it is himself." The warring ex-couple are due back in court in Los Angeles next month to fight the custody battle


He tells The New York Post, "It's like being diagnosed with cancer. Something I realize I have to live with. But I'm keeping things in perspective. Not letting it consume me and eat me up with anger as it used to. I stopped that when one late night I was on the street so unhappy and filled with rage that, in a fit, I smashed my phone against a lamppost. A black lady walking by said to me, Alec Baldwin,' you got to get hold of yourself.' So I have."


From2004...

Hollywood beauty Kim Basinger yearned to kill ex-husband Alec Baldwin during their vicious custody battle for daughter Ireland. The 50-year-old actress confesses she found it "nearly impossible" to forgive Baldwin and fantasized about his death during their violent battle for the eight-year- old when she was branded a "black widow spider" and "nutcase" for accusing the Beetlejuice star of drunken wife battery.


From2003...

Basinger claims her husband was "emotionally and physically abusive". But after supermarket tabloid National Enquirer ran a story claiming Baldwin beat his wife in April 2002, the actor's brother Billy Baldwin spoke out, branding Kim a "nutcase". He told the Enquirer, "Is my brother a saint? No. Is he volatile? Yes. But he is not a wife-beater. I think what may have happened is that Kim may have taken a run at Alec during a fight, and he may have put his arm up to protect himself or push her off. But that's not beating your wife." In a statement to Page Six, Basinger's publicist says, "An independent evaluator in the child custody case of Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin's daughter, Ireland, has recommended primary physical custody to Ms. Basinger and visitation rights to Mr. Baldwin. The report exonerates Ms. Basinger of all false allegations made by Mr. Baldwin and acknowledges that Ms. Basinger lived in an emotionally and physically abusive marriage for 10 years. Ms. Basinger has accepted this report.


From2002...

Pals of Kim Basinger are blaming the actress's chronic back problems on her ex-husband Alec Baldwin's alleged violence. The L.A. Confidential star, who was married to Baldwin for nine years, underwent surgery in August to remove slipped discs and fuse together damaged vertebrae in her lower back. And according to American tabloid the Star, friends of the 48-year-old beauty claim Baldwin was shockingly violent to her during their union, leading to the injuries. Baldwin has always denied he was ever violent towards Basinger. A source says, "She claims he hit her more than once. And there were many instances when Alec was verbally abusive to her, even in public. She has extremely harsh feelings toward Alec. All the stress of being with him aggravated her back problems and led to the operation. The battles were no secret. Look how often Alec was caught on camera fighting with his wife in public.


It's my opinion that Baldwin was a wife beater...None of the women since his divorce find him "as something they want to keep"

Since his break up with Basinger, he has dated Kristin Davis, Ally Sheedy, and attorney Nicole Seidel.


Can't deal with real men either...



From Wiki...

He was criticized by Jack Valenti, Rush Limbaugh, and Brit Hume for his appearance on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on December 11, 1998, eight days before President Bill Clinton was to be impeached. In an outburst that Baldwin later referred to as a "parody," a claim supported by the supplemental oxygen prop that Conan administers at the end of the clip, Baldwin said that "if we were in another country... we would stone Henry Hyde to death and we would go to their homes and kill their wives and their children. We would kill their families".[2] Baldwin later apologized to Hyde for his remarks and NBC has promised never to re-air the show.[3] (A video of the outburst can be seen here [1])

On March 26, 2006, Baldwin guest-hosted Brian Whitman's talk show on WABC radio in New York. During the show, conservative talk show hosts Sean Hannity and Mark Levin called the show and were heard on air. Both Hannity and Levin confronted Baldwin about his previous comments about Vice-President Cheney and Rep. Hyde. During the conversation, Hannity accused Baldwin of not appearing on his show as agreed, and Baldwin replied that he would never do Hannity's show. After Hannity accused him of attacking the president in a time of war, Baldwin attempted to move on to the next caller. Hannity interrupted, saying "you don't tell the truth." Baldwin responded by calling Hannity "a no-talent whore." The conversation turned into a series of verbal taunts among Hannity, Levin and Baldwin. According to the actor, Whitman made no attempt to assist Baldwin or curtail the call, so Baldwin walked out of the studio. On March 28, according to Baldwin, WABC President and General Manager Tim McCarthy telephoned him to "apologize for Sean's attacks."[9] [10]


Hey Alec Baldwin, you still suck...

>>Basinger is facing trial on 12 misdemeanor counts of criminal contempt for allegedly disregarding court orders concerning Baldwin’s visitation rights.<<

It could have been anyone of the people involved in defending Basinger against these serious charges. Criminal contempt of a court order is no small thing, and most people who gobble up this story don’t even know about these charges.

All of a sudden, she’s off the hook. This stinks to high heaven because the courts are being willfully manipulated by celeb gossip. I am only following this sad case to see if Basinger goes to trial for the contempt charges. If she did indeed violate the court’s order, she should go to jail.
Hasn’t anyone ever noticed that she’s a bigger psycho than Alec?

Sorry, Doc, I do not buy into your expert analysis of Kim being a psyhco. Kim to me is the stable one here.

Alec is a very angry man, by his own admission (see post 29).

Let's assume that Kim is alienating the daughter. The answer is NOT to take it out on the child. The message that Baldwin left for his daughter tells me he hates his ex more than he loves his child.

Parental alienation anyone?

He put his child in the middle. "You wouldn't treat your mother the way you're treating me". It is clear proof that yes, there is an attempt at parental alienation & he's guilty of it.

“... she’s a bigger psycho than Alec”

The best man at my wedding knows them both and would disagree strongly with your assessment. Kim is very reclusive, and that may be a symptom of some psychological “issues”, but Alec has always had very serious anger-management problems.

I agree with you. I am shocked that people even equate releasing the tape with his verbal abuse and physical threats to a child. If Kim released it, POWER to her. Supposedly he beat her. Maybe he has struck the child as well. Too many women live in shame while being abused because NO ONE WILL BELIEVE THEM, that such-and-such important person, SUCH a nice man, would ever do that to their family. Abuse should be made public so that it can be stopped and the victims helped.

I think a lot of people are applying their own personal experiences to this situation rather than looking at this specific case. There are a lot of accusations about Basinger when there’s no evidence to back it up. While there are people defending Baldwin, when most of us have witnessed his displays of anger in public. Just what an abuser aims to do. And people fall right in step. It’s almost surreal.
