Deborah Madsen: Interviews about Body-Image in the Media

The topic of body image and the implications of popular representation of the fat body were discussed in two interviews: “La représentation des femmes grosses” : Interview with the journalist Mme Salammbô Marie in December 2019 on the topic of fat bodies in popular television series. My comments were included in her article “Séries. Drôle et décalée, Shrill pointe la grossophobie” published in Ouest France (https://www.ouest-france.fr/medias/television/series/series-drole-et-decalee-shrill-pointe-la-grossophobie-6667428). This followed an earlier interview in September 2019, with the same journalist; my comments were included in the article: “La représentation des femmes grosses,” published in Le Temps.
