A New York State Senator is begging Hollywood -- both TV & movie producers -- to SUSPEND Alec Baldwin from all projects ... in the wake of allegations he spewed a racist epithet at a NY photog.

State Senator Malcolm Smith tells TMZ ... he was outraged after hearing reports that the former "30 Rock" star lashed out at a black photographer, calling him a "coon" and a "drug dealer."

He marched in Selma.

LMAO

Perhaps the modern equivalent is appearing on Blowprah?

[chesley]

OK, but “drug dealer” was also mentioned. If it was not considered racist, then why was that?

[GeronL]

Ain’t that “McCarthyism”?

[Sarah Barracuda]

A liberal..going on a racist rant..well color me shocked...NOT
Everything that came out of Baldwin’s mouth is something that the left uses every single day to describe blacks behind the scenes..the left are the TRUE racists

I really hate to tell State Senator Malcolm Smith this, but Alex Baldwin has the same First amendment rights as he does.
To me, his comments as offensive as Baldwin’s.

to SUSPEND Alec Baldwin from all projects

That is not really necessary. Individuals like me do our own suspending.

In this day of information overload, it is convenient to remove annoyances that add to the overload. Alec Baldwin is one of those annoyances. Therefore, I do not watch or observe anything involving him.

There was not much Baldwin to remove in the first place but nonetheless the overload is lighter now. The only downside is that it also affects the other people he entertains with and his sponsors. The true of the matter is that there is so much more to select from that he, his co-workers, or his sponsors are not missed.

I have not watched Alec Baldwin, Julia Roberts (no loss), or Janeane Garofalo in many years and a long list of others (Sean Penn, Tim Robbins, Matt Damon, Mark Ruffalo, etc etc) A shame, really, because I like some of the movies they were in like Hunt for Red October, and 13 going on 30. Oh, well. THEY injected politics, not me.
