The Fat Wars

If you haven't been following the excellent series The Fat Wars on Newsweek's website, you might want to check it out. Of course the coverage isn't perfect, for instance the article I linked to contains both of the following sentences:

"You can be big and healthy at the same time."

and

"Americans are fatter than ever, and that isn't healthy."

Oh Newsweek, you can't have it both ways. But it's nice to see someone in the mainstream media really talking about fat issues, even if they don't always get everything right.
