Demand Apology for "Fatties" Post from Marie Claire Magazine
The Issue
MarieClaire's website published a post by "A Year of Living Flirtatiously" blogger Maura Kelly entitled, "Should 'Fatties' Get a Room? (Even on TV?)" The original post called fat people gross and the author compared implied obesity with heroin addiction and drunkenness.
Kelly apologized in her post, but it's not enough. Demand that Marie Claire magazine issue an official apology for allowing a fataphobic and blatantly sizeist blog post to represent their publication.
