Baldwin joins a long line of prominent people to be recorded and exposed acting badly, from Don Imus to Michael Richards to Mel Gibson and beyond. In the modern age of ubiquitous recording devices, no tantrum is truly private.

Winner: Utah's unemployment rate rose by one-tenth of a percentage point in March. But that means it went from 2.3 percent to 2.4 percent.
