Alec Baldwin believes 'Americans are very uninformed about reality'
FOX ^ | 11/25/24 | Thayer

Alec Baldwin believes that Americans have a misunderstanding of the world's most pressing problems.

The reason for this, he explained at a recent event, is that they're uneducated and led astray by the mass media.

The 66-year-old "Rust" actor, this year's recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Torino Film Festival in northern Italy, commented on the media's influence in reporting news.

(Stefano Guidi/Getty Images) "Television news in the United States is a business. They have to make money," Baldwin said during a press conference, per The Hollywood Reporter. He added, "There's a hole. There's a vacuum. There is a gap, if you will, in information for Americans."

He continued, "Americans are very uninformed about reality – what's really going on. With climate change, Ukraine, Israel… You name it, all the biggest topics in the world, Americans have an appetite for a little bit of information."

He killed a woman and doesn’t appear to have even shown the slightest remorse for the loss her family has suffered.

Let’s look at Alec’s fake Spanish wife with her fake Spanish accent:

https://nypost.com/2020/12/28/its-not-just-her-name-hilaria-baldwins-entire-life-is-a-fake/

He fell for that ALLEGED fraud as well as purchasing a painting he thought was the one he had idolized for years - which wasn’t.

He seems to have fallen in love with the storyline on Modern Family where an older man marries a hot Latina wife and wants to recreate that.

Add in his anger, his assaults and his racial and homophobic tirades - WHY is he even still here???

And don’t get me started on how he has treated flight attendant..... 🖕

This from a jerk who should never show his face in public again.

The ultimate reality is that you, Alec, and your unfathomable irresponsibility, are personally responsible for the needless death of a wife and mother in the prime of life.

That’s reality.

Please, you sanctimonious bastard, STFU.

Perhaps we are.

Perhaps we don't know enough about how to kill a movie teammate on a set with a prop gun.

Please, educate us Alec! You're our only hope!

That actors live, work and think in some fantasy world should be no surprise to anyone.

Ahem, Dear Alec, if you want to see what "uninformed" looks like, take a look in the mirror.

These know it all elites need to be put on another planet or they need to be institutionalized because they're out of their minds and a danger to society.

He is completely owned and toes whatever line they tell him. The “misinformation” line is patently absurd but it’s all they have and they have plenty of water carriers.

Safety shield on the camera, none on the two people behind the camera that were shot by Baldwin.

Discuss.

Yes, and many are uninformed about gun safety.
