Hollywood actor and celebrity, Alec Baldwin, shocked fans all over the country when the star left extremely harsh and abusive words on the voice mail of Ireland's, his 11-year old daughter with Kim Basinger, cell phone. But now the Alec Baldwin controversy isn't quite over yet. Baldwin has announced that he plans to write a book on the injustices that divorced dads go through. The book will be based off his divorce with Basinger since they broke up in 2000. Baldwin spoke about his writing intentions on the ABC TV talk show, The View. The topic of the show was "parental alienation."

In addition, Alec Baldwin has also announced that he might have to leave 30 Rock, a successful sitcom on NBC, in order to have enough time to write the book and continue further on with his career as an actor and a writer.

Baldwin and his family affairs launched into the media when the voice mail on Ireland's cell phone leaked to the media. Baldwin called Ireland a "thoughtless little pig" and bashed Basinger and his daughter repeatedly.

The book that Baldwin plans on writing will be based on his and Basinger's marriage and their long fight for the custody of their now 11-year old daughter. Baldwin was shocked and hurt when Basinger denied that she helped leak the voice mail recording to the media. She also called Baldwin "unstable and irrational'. She also worked hard in court to deny Baldwin visitation rights after he left the voice message. A court hearing on the matter will happen next week. Basinger, Baldwin, and their daughter Ireland are all expected to be present with their publicists and lawyers. The Press and their publicists are unsure of what the overall verdict will be. Baldwin hopes the judge will pardon his behavior towards his daughter.

As for now, Alec Baldwin has not started on the book, but plans to eventually, especially when he has more time. He is working hard to find a good publisher. He plans on speaking more about his upcoming book and his career soon.

I hope alec baldwin addresses this problem in society its not just a man problem it goes both ways i no i live it.its just not fair.whaT WILL become of this new genaration and there offsprings?what have they learned from the adults.That life is like a disposable lighter?if alec reads this please include a survivel tips cause it does cause mental distress to the other parent the one thats being aleinated from the child and really the other parent should be able to hold that other parent accountable such as jail time and fines, the problem is really these children have to many rights and the parents dont but miss a payment on child support and see who goes where.thats my story and im sticking to it,MR Jeff Crosby

Women under feminism have become spoiled, dirty, entitled little brats. Chivalry must end, and men must start dealing with women as harshly as they would a man. Go Alec.

Alec Baldwin deserves everything he gets. It's a well-known fact that Baldwin used to publicly berate Basinger at the Long Island restaurant that they frequented, yelling at her in full view of other customers. What the father does to the mother he will also do to the daughter, so I wasn't shocked in the least when this answering machine message was released.

I have long awaited someone to address this injustice to good fathers.My husband is a loving ,caringgood man whom always provided well for his children -eventhough the money was spent by the mother and not always in the childs best interest such as saving some towards colleg.She started hrer alienationprocess early on and it just got worse and worse. Alittle boy who enjoyed time with his dad and other siblings was taught to act better than them and not participate with them in any activities like swimming at home or playing baseball,or just spending time around his brothers whom looked up to him and adored him. well because of her hate for her ex husband and me- the new wife she was on a vendetta to have her son despise the father he loved by manipulation ,loyalty pulls,and many a lie to convince a young vulnerable boy that his dad had no time for him.I hope Alec's book brings to light what is really going on in the court system to make fathers look like they don't care and and do not
