For example, you reference an Oprah episode where she comes on stage with a wheelbarrow of animal fat that represents how much weight she’s lost. How do you think the media can find a middle ground that reflects an experience of healthy eating and body positivity? You then juxtapose that with Ina Garten’s Barefoot Contessa, in which food is celebrated as nourishment. I don’t think that ground zero for the media is in regard to food. I think it’s in regards to how they display and discuss fat bodies. The media needs to put more bodies in front of people.
