Alec Baldwin slammed for anti-gay slurs in Twitter rant

Washington, June 21 (ANI): Alec Baldwin has been criticised for making anti-gay slurs towards the editor-in-chief of the New York Daily News, British-born journalist Colin Myler. "Her Highness Colin Myler... Please don't do to the News what you did to NOTW...," Fox News quoted him as tweeting on Tuesday. "Ever since that English Queen took over the Daily News, they lie like the Post..." he had posted earlier. Baldwin had reportedly punched a photographer of the publication, who was stationed outside the city Marriage License Bureau in Lower Manhattan. On Wednesday, he was accused of running over an "Inside Edition" reporter's foot with his mountain bike outside his New York apartment. However, in the wake of his latest controversial tweets, many are refusing to sympathize with the A-list actor and his plights with the press. "More tolerance from 1percent white liberal Hollywood," one person tweeted before linking to an article about Baldwin's offensive remarks, while another wrote "please stop using anti-gay slurs. If you really need to insult someone, call them "a thoughtless little pig," and others called on the "30 Rock" star to apologize for his inappropriate remarks. (ANI)
