Alec Baldwin's Twitter tantrums always make good news, and his newest tirade is no different. It seems several news outlets camped out in front of his home in hopes of getting scoop on how he's handling events surrounding his recently arrested alleged stalker, Genevieve Sabourin. Baldwin was reasonably upset, but when the "30 Rock" star realized "Today" was among the masses, he lost it. He took aim at the morning news show, tweet-blasting its paparazzi-style tactics and concluding that he was "leaving NBC just in time."

"Outside my apt today, along side the other stalkers from the tabloid press, a crew that identified themselves as being with the Today Show," Baldwin tweeted. "I haven't appeared on the Today Show in many years. But did they have to camp outside my apt? A story about stalking sure brings out the stalkers in the media. But, the Today Show? A photographer attempting to snap a shot of @hilariathomas backed up into and tripped over a baby in a stroller. Man.... This just in: Andrea Peyser is joining the cast of the Today Show. No one from NBC contacted me until the Today Show arrived at my apt. I think I'm leaving NBC just in time."
For those who don't follow Baldwin's life or rants, Hilaria Thomas is his young fiance, while Peyser is a New York Post reporter who took a Baldwin tweet-hit herself. “You won’t find a writer more casual with the truth in all of journalism than Andrea Peyser,’’ Baldwin swung on April 10.
Peyser is enjoying the attention, but "Today" hasn't yet responded to the attack. As with Lindsay Lohan's infamous snub last June, however, the morning news team is sure to report on and respond to the hit during the Thursday, April 12, broadcast. MSN TV wouldn't be surprised if they even had Baldwin on "Today" as a last-minute guest. Stay tuned.
"Today" airs weekday mornings on NBC.

Mr. Baldwin, we, the 99% American People are sick of them and all the other corrupt corporates! Come join us in our fight against corporate America! We made them successful and it's time for them to give back to us! We can't get their attention! They're too busy looking for ways to continue to take food off our tables!
We've had enough and enough is enough! It's time for change, and that time is NOW! Not later, but right now!
