Agreed.It makes me sad for young women who feel inside that they are ugly, and undergo surgery to "fix" themselves. More encouraging, positive friends and family would be better.
Did you see the movie "Bombshell"? Key phrase "It's a visual medium". That's the reality which translated into politics with the first televised Presidential debate.
Most people on the radio believed Nixon won, but most who watched on television thought JFK won. This data was not lost on most statisticians and advisors for political campaigns.
That said, I do think the artificiality of television is influencing too many people with superficial values. It's up to parents to influence their children otherwise.
Parents are the ones who are responsible, not Fox News, the schools or local politicians. Sure, they can all help, but it's still up to the parents.
