WTF??? You think a body guard can’t be professional and not some kind of pervert?
I didn't know he had done that. With that information in mind it wouldn't surprise me if the kid didn't out the recording herself.
Apparently he also ridiculed her on Larry King(?)recently.
Do you seriously think that the release of the tape is more harmful to Ireland than the actual phone call?

Yep. Everyone has been chewed out by their dad. To differing degrees, mind you, but kids learn how to deal with parents. Even hot headed ones.
Where does one learn how do deal with the fact that EVERYONE this girl walks past knows who she is, and why they know her?
Would you want your 11 year old kid to be on those gossip TV shows? Supermarket magazines?
Her mom did that to her.
Kim is nailing this thug the correct way...so who cares if her method offends
other Rosy O'Donnell loving parents who might have called their daughters "little pigs" and threatened to "straighten them out"
Screw them too. Think about it, Rosy O'Donnell, a lesbian, calling her adopted daughter a pig.
If you really believe embarrassment is worse than abuse, you and I will probably never agree on this issue.
Father of the year material.
Obviously, his abuse is not new. And I feel sorry for people who can’t tell the difference between someone losing it (which we all do) and someone who is abusive.
Question. Would you let your boss or your neighbor or your kid or your spouse get away with talking to you like that? If not, it is abuse. If one of those people talked to me like that I would put them on my “never darken my door again” list at the least, and at the most I would call the cops.
It was on David Letterman (you can get it on YouTube). It’s not bad - it would never lead you to believe he was going to abuse his daughter verbally a couple of hours later.
He’s making jokes about her dancing lessons; nothing startling.
>>as all parents lose their patience with their kids, I am most saddened that this was released to the media because of what it does to a child<<
Not all parents launch into a psychotic red rage. And any FReeper who blames this behavior on the child or Kim Basinger more than Alec Baldwin, you are sick.
>>I don’t like Alec Baldwin, but this was such a set-up and a huge setback for Father’s rights.<<
A set-up? You mean they were so smart that by simply not answering the phone, they “tricked” Alec Baldwin into a frothing, maniacal rage? You bozos crack me up.
>>Notice how the two are always pictured with the daughter looking glum or petulant and Kim always has her arm around her. She’s weird.<<
Yes, a daughter with a raving lunatic for a father who threatens her verbally should be chipper as can be at all times.
Where are you from, the planet NitWit?
Well it’s obvious that you’re from the planet a-hole. I would say have a nice day, but I’m quite sure you can’t.
