:while people like Ben Afflek who actually check themselves in BEFORE a brush with the law get made fun of and made out to be the bad guy.
From what I can tell, the press has been pleasantly sympathetic. I hope it stays that way. A lot of people struggle with alcohol to varying degrees. Affleck's actions may provide a good example for a lot of people who may also want to get that aspect of their life under control. I dig his sense of personal responsibliity.
