Tweets Alec Baldwin — reported in HuffPo — after doing an interview in which he said that he'd been hearing "for decades" that Harvey Weinstein had raped actress Rose McGowan and, when asked why nothing happened, Baldwin said, "What happened was that Rose McGowan took a payment of $100,000 and settled her case with him, and it was for Rose McGowan to prosecute that case." He added that taking a settlement instead of seeking criminal prosecution may "set back the cause of change."

Criticizing Baldwin were Patricia Arquette...

8 women went to lawyers who basically told them they didn't have a hope in hell in court against a multi millionaire. That's why they settled

... and Asia Argento

Alec Baldwin mansplaining 'the cause' for women everywhere....

Baldwin meekly defended himself...

It was never my intention, in my public statements, to “blame the victim” in the many sexual assault cases that have emerged recently/I simply posited that the settlement of such cases certainly delayed justice, though I am fully aware that those settlements were entered into w the understanding that settlement is wise, intimidated into believing so.

... and signed of with a projection of empathy. ...

My heart goes out to all such victims. My goal is to do better in all things related to gender equality. Au revoir.

Argento kicked him on the way out — "We won’t miss you, bully boy." And Baldwin could not let her have the last word. He said she'd "run out of paint or men" if she painted all men the same way. Then Argento's boyfriend Anthony Bourdain defended her, and Baldwin — with a man to smack at last — tweeted: "You should stick to eating worms and keep your mouth shut."

Here, watch the original interview that set off this back-and-forth:

I don't think Baldwin has anything to be ashamed of there, but I can see why the women are sensitive. He's gently (but clearly) accusing them of want to further their careers. I'll paraphrase and extract the subtlety: These women put their career first, and accepting money and silence was best for them, but it protected Harvey and meant that many other women would be victimized as they had been; the system, within which they sought favor, would continue and they willingly became part of it.

I'm sure it hurts to hear that. If you've had a painful experience, you may feel justified in doing what will work out best for you personally. But look at the evil that rolls on and on when each victim does that. It would take some unselfishness and courage to do otherwise, and Baldwin was gently and intelligently observing that the dismal story of Harvey Weinstein — like so many Hollywood scripts — lacked a strong heroine.

By the way, Alec Baldwin, despite his difficult morning, went on to perform in last night's "Saturday Night Live." He played Donald Trump in the cold open (which fell flat with the audience)...



... and then stooped to playing Tony Bennett singing about — I'm not kidding — diarrhea and constipation:
