Midterm Reminder

Hello all. Just a reminder that your midterm is tomorrow, Wednesday. Remember that you can have one page (notes on each side) with you in class. You will also need a Blue Book. Here is a reminder from the review sheet given out two weeks ago: • In class, we discussed the ethics of using a faceless image on the evening broadcast news as a visual representation of obesity. (Remember that is only an ethical issue; it is completely legal to use an image taken in a public place.) Consider these questions based on your readings: o What does this practice tells us about the roles of obesity and image? o About the role of health and responsibility? o About media representation of fatness in news versus entertainment? o About health and being an American?
