ALEC BALDWIN BLASTS BASHIR, MSNBC'S DOUBLE STANDARDS OVER HATE-FILLED REMARKS

◼ On Tuesday, hours after he was reportedly fired from MSNBC for an off-set anti-gay rant, Alec Baldwin lashed out at the network for terminating him while not disciplining Martin Bashir, who suggested on air that someone should defecate and urinate in former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's mouth.

Baldwin's remarks were made off-the-cuff, while Bashir's were scripted and produced.
In an interview with Gothamist, Baldwin exclaimed, "Martin Bashir's on the air, and he made his comment on the air!"

Baldwin then said he disputed the "half the comment I made... if I called him 'c*cksucking maggot' or a 'c*cksucking motherf*cker'... 'fa*got' is not the word that came out of my mouth."
