Journalists like @JuliaHB1 are complicit in the perpetuation of misinformation. When you have shows like @talkRADIO giving a platform to people who think that drama & ratings are more important than good information and peoples health, then is it news or self serving propaganda?
He had plenty of time to talk. You just don’t like hearing people with whom you disagree. Nothing to do with ignorance or stereotypes. I was pointing out the perfectly good reasons that people have for discriminating against obese people.

I don't like hearing people with large platforms push discriminatory stereotypes based on ignorance and bias. I don't mind being challenged by data and evidence - that's what science does. What you displayed was a terrible effort at journalism.

Would there be ‘perfectly good reasons’ for discriminating against ppl with anorexia nervosa? Or other eating disorders?

Gee whiz. Someone believes they have "perfectly good reasons" to discriminate? I am amazed at those who spend time rationalizing the idea that it's ok to treat others as lesser people, yet think they are on some moral high ground for doing so.

OH MY GOD. Discrimination is definited as "the unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of race, age, or sex." - you think there are perfectly good reasons to do this?

What you just said is horrible and ignorant. You have a responsibility as a media person to do better than that.

Discrimination is NEVER OK!! Who do you think you are judging others based on their weight and having the nerve to broadcast this. You should be off the air. No one has the right to opinions that are factually wrong and based on hate & narrow mindedness!!

Discrimination of every kind, against anyone is totally unacceptable. The perpetrator of the psychological damage inflicted by these behaviours, will most likely never know anguish, humiliation and pain they have caused. It dehumanizes, and you think its ok to do this?
