Seeing Two Sides of Every Story

Alec Baldwin has recently been through a PR nightmare, after a recording of a voicemail he left his 11-year-old daughter was released to the media.

Making one mistake can so easily ruin a reputation, especially when you're a celebrity, but that is good pr is for - right?. It would be very difficult for me to defend someone who called his daughter a "pig" among other threatening words and names.

Heather Mills, current Dancing With the Stars contestant, made a statement on the Ryan Seacrest radio show that people should not judge Baldwin so soon. Of course, let's not all forget about the divorce battle she is going through. Speaking from experience, she claims that the public does not know what goes on behind closed doors (referring to Basinger and Ireland, the daughter). Even if his ex-wife has made his life miserable, he has NO reason to take it out on his daughter.

I think Alec Baldwin is going to need a miracle to protect his image, and I don't think efforts made by people like Mills will do him any good, especially since she is probably already against the media for making her own divorce and settlement details so public.

Telling people they need to think about both sides of every story is just not enough.
