Pack your bags, Alec! MSNBC fires Baldwin over anti-gay slurs
[PAGESIX] Alec Baldwin has been fired by MSNBC, sources say.

The rage-aholic's weekly show, "Up Late With Alec Baldwin," has been canceled because of the actor's foul-mouthed rant at a photographer he called a nasty name.

"The decision has been made. He's gone," an insider at the cable channel told me. "The [parent company] Comcast guys have decided. Word is spreading through the building."

Baldwin's dismissal was decided on partly because of his diva-like behavior toward co-workers, a source said.

Besides demanding a humidifier because he claimed the air at 30 Rock was too dry, Baldwin alienated staffers when he demanded a separate makeup room being used by a woman with cancer who is sensitive to hairspray.

When Baldwin was told he couldn't have his way, he allegedly bellowed at the top of his lungs, "I don't give a f - - k if she has cancer or not, I want that f - - king makeup room."
