Jan Shedd’s viral post about Demetria went viral in November 2017. On Facebook, she shared her displeasure with her clothing choice.
The first comment, dated November 1, said,
“Has anybody seen the latest morning traffic anchor on Channel 8? She’s a size 16/18 woman wearing a size 6 shirt, which makes her look ridiculous. I realize that watching Channel 8 would expose me too biased news and political correctness, but they have clearly lost their minds. I’m no longer going to watch Channel 8.”
Her retort to the remark was vehement, and it quickly went viral.
“I’m not a 16/18, but even if I was, I’m not for you calling out my height in that way to injure or discriminate against me.”
