1.) Yes I should use this source. It helps explain that our society has replaced a full figured woman’s body with one that is very thin, to the point where it is unhealthy and unrealistic.
2.) I think that the audience will find it persuasive because it goes to show that the world has changed a lot in the ways it portrays images in the media.
3.) It could maybe be looked at as lacking credibility because it is from 2009 but I feel that it is still a very good source used in my paper.
