Alec Baldwin Paparazzi Rant: Writes Letter For Hampton Photographers To Leave Him, Hilaria Baldwin & Daughter Alone
Alec Baldwin often has run-ins with invasive paparazzi who creep around his Manhattan apartment. But, now the 55-year-old actor has a big problem with photographers who disturb him at his Long Island home.
To express his frustration, Baldwin wrote a letter to The East Hampton Star, in which he explains how the neighborhood has changed. His biggest complaint was about a man named Jason Gutterman.
"Gutterman has been staked out in front of Mary's Marvelous most weekends, beginning this summer, and has marauded up and down the village's Main Street in search of photos of my wife and/or our newborn child," he wrote.

He also discussed another man who he described as "tall, middle-aged, slovenly." Baldwin recalled telling the man not to photograph his wife, Hilaria Baldwin. He said the guy responded, "You people brought this out here. I'm just trying to make a buck off of it."
The former 30 Rock star said that the aforementioned "have no idea about how to live in a community" like East Hampton. He concluded the letter asking the local government to do something about the obtrusive photographers.

It has "everything to do with criminal harassment, abuse, and authorizing the intimidation and stalking of one group in our society while protecting the basic rights of all others," he wrote. "That's remarkably like a bill of attainder. And that's unconstitutional."
This isn't the first time Baldwin has tried to get his point across. In June, the actor expressed his dismay via Twitter for George Stark, a Daily Mail reporter who accused his wife of tweeting during actor James Gandolfini's funeral. However, Baldwin said that Hilaria had left her phone in the car.
In 2012, Baldwin was also accused of punching a photographer from The New York Daily News for trying to photograph him and his wife after they obtained their marriage license.
