To be of any value whatsoever, the letter should have been directed at the station that chose to employ the fat woman. They are the ones that control what goes on the TV.

That being said, it is generally healthy for society to make people feel bad about negative traits that are within their control. Unhealthy behaviors are not strongly enough discouraged in America.


So if someone has a suggestion for you they should tell your boss?

An apology from a bully? I think you misunderstand irony.

Ah yes that horrible bully who sent her one email suggesting she should lose weight to encourage a healthy lifestyle for impressionable viewers

That completely makes it OK to bully him back. not hypocritical at all.

That letter is innocent in every possible way, not to mention good advice.

The problem is the obese woman trying to stay ignorant of her state.


lol, this is a huge fucking joke.

The term for this horseshit is "Concern trolling."

"Oh, I just wanted to let the poor gal know that she was fat, I'm sure that no one had ever told her before and she should know so that she could be healthy." Fucking lol. Just think about that shit.

You are concern trolling too

you pretend to defend her but really are saying something else in secret code

That letter was barely inflammatory,he didn't say UR FAT LOLOL UR A WHALE, but rather pointed out his views in a respectful manner. The only thing that could even resemble a flame would be how he told her that "Obesity is one of the worst choices a person can make and one of the most dangerous habits to maintain", but that is a fact and not a statement of mean opinion. Sure, what he said may be untactful if he is trying to make friends with this lady, but this is not about making fun of or bullying fat people.

Calling someone fat in an unhelpful manner is stupid, as though the person doesn't know they're fat. But this guy had the viewers in mind, not his own hatred of fat people.

Nonsense, he was just an arrogant jack off and got what he deserved, no guy should be commenting on the weight of a mother of three.
