I stand behind Alec, because there’s no way I’m standing in front of him.

[BobGymlan]

I’d love to see the like/dislike ratio on this one.

I used to work around where this man lived in NYC. He was rude. Unkind. A true nightmare of a human. So I really have trouble having empathy for a man who didn’t value anyone who didn’t have money. Rip to lives lost. But with all the horrors that are happening around us. I just have a hard time watching a self serving interview that has more to do with his Imagine and saving face than anything else.

Silence is really good when you have nothing constructive to say.

[CharlesEdmond]

The bad thing about being an actor is that people don’t know when you might or might not be exercising your profession.

Condolences to the family who lost their precious daughter 😔

[shirleyann]

“To leave my family for four weeks was a big deal” … Alec, there’s a woman who has left her family forever!!!

My daughter is in the US Army and she was showing me some of her weapons, handguns, and rifles. She first, before handing me her handgun, pulled the clip and then looked in the chamber. then properly handed the gun to me. I turned it away from her and started to point it. She stopped me and said "did you check to see if it was loaded" I looked at her and said, "no you already did that." She then proceeded to educate me on the use of firearms. "YOU NEVER ASSUME A GUN IS UNLOADED UNTIL YOU CHECK IT YOURSELF."

[NEUTRALDROP]

He's a great actor especially the crying scene

[kellyastleford]

This is disgusting. A woman died and ABC puts a soundtrack to it like it's movie to raise sympathy for someone who feels no guilt for taking her life. We're supposed to feel bad for you because you've lost your dream of movie making? How about her son's dream of seeing his mom again.

[LeahLuvh]

This has to be the PHONIEST thing ever. So embarrassing they’d put this out claiming it’s an authentic interview

[veemon]

"someone is responsible, but not me"
The arrogance of that statement is appalling.

[JBrimBloodG]

imagine trying to convince millions of people a single action revolver cocked the hammer back all the way and then pulled the trigger on its own

[SenorZorrozzz]

Hey, ABC, why didn’t you give more info on the camera crew walking off the film? That’s very important!

[algonquin]

i gotta say... that crying at 4:40 is Oscar worthy

[modelm]

It's really sad this gal died like this. Totally preventable and tragic.

[MediaBuster]

He is just trying to win over public opinion. Whoever thought this interview was a good idea is crazy..

[junkymailhai]

As Homer Simpson once said “This is everyone’s fault but mine.”

[lilslicknick]

He’s a pretty good actor! This whole interview he was acting and did a great job!

[dawnanderson]

I feel so much sadness for Halyna's family suffering quietly while this blame game plays out
