I'm offended that she's offended.

In some countries members of the media have to worry about being murdered. If this is the worst thing that happened to her today then she's got it pretty good.

Also, remember when TV news only hired good looking people? Rah, progress.

Self important.

Guy/woman who wrote that is a tool. Turning fatass comment into matter of public service? What a pussy.

As she alluded, as a public (ahem) ...figure... I'm sure she gets called fat often enough. But to call her a bad role model for girls on that basis alone is a bit much. There's an implicit suggestion that if she can't lose weight she (and all girls?) should retire and cower in shameful seclusion.

That's not only wrongful, pigheaded thinking, it'd be the death knell for the big earl thread and easy fat girl pussy everywhere. [-X :JR: [-(

I miss the days when it seemed every chick on Fox was wearing high black boots.

It was lilke James T. Kirk's Enterprose dress code for women was ineffect. Short skirts and tall black boots.

P.A.B. in boots, goddamn now I need to wake up the Ol'Lady and bust one out to PAB in her.

More than half of you are married to women that other men would call fat. And you'd punch them in the throat for saying it to her face.

So, shut the fuck up.

A fat woman got insulted and spoke out about it. Maybe it was a temper tantrum and ill-timed, but jesus titty christ, she has a right to say whatever the hell she wants.

Free speech isn't for pussies you know.
But she didn't "get insulted and speak out about it". Rather, she received a tame email from a stranger (not a boss, a group of intimidating older kids or a police officer). She then portrayed herself as a victim, seeking to lump herself in with the disabled and racial minorities. So the worst thing for me is that she managed to get so disproportionately indignant and self-righteous that she trivialised and cheapened the term "bullying" which victims of actual bullying won't thank her for.

She's a self-important, blundering fat bitch who overstates her own gravitational pull.

And if my wife was fat and worked on tv and someone sent her that email, I doubt I'd give it a second thought.
The guy who sent it is an asshole. Plain and simple.

Or some 24 year old crossfitter who thinks that if everyone does crosssfit and eats a gluten free paleo diet he or she will turn into a supermodel overnight.

Give me a fucking break.

Yeah, she should have shit-canned the email. Doesn't mean he should have sent it. Lots of "well-meaning" folks out there who are a few dead brain cells shy of being full-time mouth-breathing retards.

Or maybe its just all about manners after all.

"Ummm, I thought I should let you know that you are far too ugly to be in public. Its hard to look at you and not get an ugly expression myself. So, you're making ugly spread. I'm sure its not just me. Children look at you too. You really should convert to one of those raghead religions and wear a mask."
Everyone agrees that the guy who sent the email is a tool. The problem is with her fanning the smell of burning martyr from her own fat ass in everyone's direction. She also purports to ordain herself as a Joan of Arc figure, brave and inspirational enough to lead the charge against cyber-bullying to protext children. It's bullshit, Syaigh.

Its not bullshit. Again, her reaction may have been overblown, but the bottom line is this:

Many people, not just assholes, feel it is not only their right, but their privilege to express their negative opinions about others, to their faces, for no other reason than they think these other folks "need to know". I know all of you have see this. It has become the social norm to criticize and/or insult others you disagree with or have a conflict with. It happens in the workplace, it happens socially, it happens in politics, and it happens on-line, a lot.

It shouldn't happen. Its rude and insulting. And it does jack shit for making anyone more productive, happy, or willing to work together. And for women, the criticism is usually in the context of her appearance.

I happen to know quite a few heavy women who do some of the hardest jobs imaginable and do a damn good job at it. And I know that they get criticized by others on a regular basis simply because of their body size. If you just cast that guy as an asshole and move on, you're ignoring the bigger problem. That guy probably isn't a nut job, he's probably just some regular arrogant fucktard who decided that his opinion was more valuable than a woman's emotional well-being. And he's one of millions.

I do find it disturbing that the bulk of the abuse in this thread was directed towards Fatty McFatterson and not the guy who started it. No one called him a cunt.

The guy is an asshole for it but so is she for calling it bullying.

Rude, yes. Bullying, doubtful. More like an opinionated pile of shit.

You seem to have missed the point of why IGx exists. You talking about manners and shit all the time. Being rude and opinionated around here is perfectly legal.
PS. EZ said you are obese with a pretty face. Is that true?

Nobody defended him either.

Would it make you feel better if I said that I think that they are both cunts?

Signaid's point is an excellent one. I see this behavior on a daily basis. I'm not sure how it became this way really. There's no real repercussions for boorish behavior anymore. Perhaps it all got started when it was decided that everyone should be winners and empowerment was the best course of action instead of discipline. People can say the absolute most outrageous shit and get away with it. I used to get so fucking amped up over this type of behavior but now I'm just weary.
