Artist and asshole are not mutually exclusive positions.
Agreed. If you reread your initial statement, however, you do suggest that they are. I've spent the last few days trying to determine if that's what you meant. I'm sorry for causing you frustration, but I did stick to the same point of inquiry throughout our discussion, rewording it each time in an effort to make it clearer.
I will stand by my assertion that he was not being a professional - his "interactions" with Judd Hirsch and the producers of "Taxi" make that clear enough.
In the sense that he behaviour was unbefitting for one in the acting profession, you mean? Yes, after a few days of considering the issue, I'm forced to agree. It's not a matter of whether or not people would tolerate it from him (it's obvious that not everyone did), but whether it would be behaviour that would interfere with the average individual's ability to perform within their profession.
Having said that, I have some reservations about how the Judd Hirsch fight is reported here. Still, that's a different issue.
