This will be my blog for my Geography 421 class at UBC Okanagan, a project connecting food, the media, and eating disorders.

I will be monitoring the news sites CBC and BBC and the social media sites Instagram and Tumblr daily for two weeks. Through a personal blog, I will be sharing a daily story/image that arise from the search food on all sites. I hypothesize that the two different types of sites will have contrasting images and different themes depending on the site it is coming from. Every day for the two weeks, I will be providing research into how the media, eating disorders, and food are connected through peer-reviewed journal articles, opinion pieces, and other forms dialogue such as videos.

Until next time,
