I stand up to Barkley the Bully. For over 4 years TNT analyst Charles Barkley has been making jokes at the expense of the "fat women" of San Antonio and therefore women everywhere. As a paid spokesperson for Weight Watchers, Barkley should be made accountable for the hurt he causes. Weight Watchers, TNT and the NBA, stop letting this happen in your name.
Why is this important?
Fat shaming is harmful and only serves to stigmatize and humiliate, yet it continues on national TV with no remorse or accountability. For over 4 years Charles Barkley on TNT's Inside the NBA attacks the women of San Antonio, simply because we let him. He tells us to turn off the show if we don't think he's funny, but we need to do more. Barkley's bashing rants should be stopped.
