CBS anchor
Newscast Media WASHINGTON—A CBS anchor received a message from a viewer telling her she was fat, and was not setting a good example for girls. During Tuesday morning’s live broadcast, Jennifer Livingston a news anchor for La Crosse, Wisc. CBS affiliate WKBT confronted the critic about the comment. The email in part read:
“Hi Jennifer,
It’s unusual that I see your morning show, but I did so for a very short time today. I was surprised indeed to witness that your physical condition hasn’t improved for many years. Surely you don’t consider yourself a suitable example for this community’s young people, especially girls in particular…” Watch below:
Her husband who is also an anchor at the station, was offended by the comments directed to his wife posted the email on his Facebook page. http://newscastmedia.com/cbs-anchor.htm
There was no bullying in the E-mail that I saw. All I see is an overweight person trying to portray herself as a “victim” of some sort. Epic FAIL on her part.
15 minutes of fame? For being fat?
Nobody force fed all that food down her except herself.
What is in her future? Heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and coronary artery disease, just for starters.
