Washington, Dec 9 (ANI): The widow of an American Airlines co-pilot who was killed in the 9/11 attack, has slammed Alec Baldwin for invoking the tragedy during a rant against the air industry.
Cheryl McGuinness Hutchins, whose husband Tom was in the cockpit of the first plane to hit the World Trade Center in the Sept 11 tragedy, thinks the actor should simply admit he was wrong after he slandered the airlines industry for throwing him out of the plane.
Hutchins was reacting to Baldwin's blog on the Huffington Post website - in which he wrote, "I believe carriers and airports have used [9/11] as an excuse to make the air travel experience as inelegant as possible."
She said it was "inappropriate" to point the finger at a world tragedy.
"I absolutely think [Baldwin's statement] was an inappropriate comment to make" TMZ.com quoted the widow as saying.
"I believe airlines used what happened on 9/11 to increase security and protect passengers as much as possible-not to make traveling inelegant.
"If [Alec] did something inappropriate ... he shouldn't have to point the finger at a world tragedy.
"He should just take responsibility for his actions and admit he should have gotten off the phone," she said. (ANI)
