Brad Pitt bashes Sinclair
Edited on Thu Oct-21-04 03:37 PM by loyalsister
WOW!! Just read this article about what he had to say. I've never seen this side of this guy in interviews or anything. Impressive.

Pitt steals show from Kerry
Actor on hand at MU to promote film.
By NATE CARLISLE of the Tribune’s staff
Published Thursday, October 21, 2004

<snip>

"I want to thank all you guys for showing up tonight. In my day, I dedicated more time, I think, to Harpo’s and The Blue Note than events like these, so I commend you all."

<snip>

The actor then said he was in Columbia because he has rage over Sinclair Broadcast Group, the media company that plans to air on its television stations portions of a documentary called "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal." The film is critical of Kerry’s actions upon returning home from service in the Vietnam War.

Pitt said what angers him is Sinclair’s "reckless disregard" for opposing views. One-sided views deprive audiences of context, Pitt said. "This is why I’m here - to bring you context," he said.

9. No, the first rule of Project Mayhem is "You do not ask questions."
You do not talk about FIGHT CLUB.

6. He is a good actor and a cool guy
And he was shopping for a house here in Stamford CT where I just moved back to. But I still will probably never see him but he is really cool. Just thought I would throw that in for the fairer sex.
