Nothing Like an Old-Fashioned Pissing Match, Hamptons Style

We can't be the only ones amused by the contest of wills between Alec Baldwin and local paparazzo Jason Gutterman in the letters page of the East Hampton Star. In the first letter two weeks ago, Baldwin complained about photographers bugging him in Amagansett. "What has gone wrong with our society that this vermin has spawned in East Hampton?" The photographer Jason Gutterman then responded the next week, bitching about Baldwin's "outrageous behavior, blatant lies, and mudslinging flurry of insults." This week, Baldwin ripostes by maintaining that "Mr. Gutterman is a fool and a coward. As proof, I offer both his letter and his occupation." We'll put on another pot of coffee while we wait for Gutterman's reply.
