Apparently, This is Controversial

Hmmm...

Well, I'm glad that there's some big-time, mainstream coverage of breastfeeding; this time by way of Angelina Jolie pictured nursing one of the twins on the cover of W magazine.

But, several of the articles about these photos are already framing the "story" as yet another stir-causing move by the apparently controversial Jolie-Pitt family.

Associated Press' article, "Jolie apparently breastfeeding on W magazine cover" is a bit sensational...but at least they do attempt to breakdown popular reactions to images of breastfeeding.

All in all, I'm pleased. We need to see a lot more pictures of mothers nursing their babies. People need to see this as a normal, healthy, and loving way to feed our children.
