US News and World Report's Washington Whispers reports on Alec Baldwin's NYC curveball:
Actor and liberal activist Alec Baldwin has an idea that's either gonna guarantee him that New York House or Senate seat he covets or make him a permanent fill-in on Hollywood Squares: Put the new Yankee stadium on ground zero as a memorial to 9/11 victims. "It's the most interesting thing I have heard," he says. Baldwin and New York PR man Phil Nourie hatched the idea. Baldwin calls it "a mix of the commemorative and the practical." He says every game could begin with a moment of silence and that survivors and members of the NYPD and the FDNY could get discounted tickets.Oh yeah - discounted tickets will really make it cool.
Actually, for Alec, Hollywood Squares is the stratosphere. I think peddling weight reducers in infomercials on late night TV is more his speed.
