Charged wording in quoted context 1
The wording was preserved as context but excluded from the grade because it appeared in an attributed quote or a legal/allegation context.

"While we encourage people to not comment on a person's appearance and to value a person beyond how they look, their weight, shape or size, it is important that we acknowledge the impact of being exposed to content, imagery and discussions that promote and endorse extreme thinness, how this can influence a person's relationship with the body, eating and exercise and how influential and potentially dangerous popular culture can be," director of education initiatives Danni Rowlands said in a statement to ABC News.
