~My Tidbit~
This article is my major blog post's tidbit. Because it's a reliable source, and it gives me all of the hard facts, and statistics about teens with eating disorders. It's an interesting website, because if you get curious about any eating disorder, than you'll be able to find out about it without having to go through google and trying to find another reliable source.

You're targeting the media for the rise in eating disorders, correct? This "tidbit" article mentions that the majority of teens diagnosed with anorexia are white - I found that very interesting given that most of what mass media spits out (through movies, advertisements, magazine, etc) are stick-thin white women ...
ReplyDeleteYesm'. I am targeting the media for the rise in eating disorders. And the fact that the majority of anorexic teenagers are the same people that you see portrayed as super thin in the media, only supports this accusation ^_^
