The Pitts

Brad Pitt’s family has been in the headlines lately, with his mother Jane Pitt’s pro-life, anti-gay, sorta racist letter to the Springfield News-Leader and his younger brother Dough Pitt’s new campaign for Virgin Mobile. Doug was on the Today show, where he talked to Matt Lauer about his mother’s provocative views:

The bad thing is when it turns into venom and negativity, and we don’t have that in our family. It’s open discussion; we can learn from each other.”
