Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Alec Baldwin 'Fight Back' in Joke About Marrying Each Other (VIDEO)

Jesse Tyler Ferguson recently appeared in a promotional video for the Fight Back New York PAC, and he shared the witty political ad on 'The Tonight Show' (weeknights, 11:35PM ET on NBC). In it, the 'Modern Family' star "revealed" his intention to marry Alec Baldwin. The only thing standing in his way? Laws hindering gay marriage. "He doesn't know it yet, but we are going to get married!" gushes Ferguson in the ad. "With your support of Fight Back New York, he and I can be married here in New York by this time next year." Nevermind that Baldwin isn't gay.
Ferguson has met Baldwin only once. "Now there's a restraining order," he joked to Jay Leno. Far from a restraining order, Baldwin responded with his own Fight Back video.
"As a result of [Ferguson's] video, a vast and malicious whisper campaign has emerged, alleging that I can't marry Jesse because I'm not gay ... 'Oh, Alec Baldwin -- he's straight, he's a heterosexual...'"
Off-camera, a producer says, "Um, Alec, you are straight." He replies: "That's not the point."
