Obesity views

Hagen's rant against Cancer Research UK's fact- and science-based campaign against obesity might well be notable for this article and not WP:NOTNEWS. It is a sign of her personality and beliefs that she believes the therapeutic pseudoscience of fat acceptance, just as much as fellow comedian Bill Hicks is known for publicly defending smoking until his death from pancreatic cancer at the age of 32.

While I believe her anti-science rants are strange and should be in the article, the entire page should be more ordered first. Currently her biography section is more of a career history section, it's clearly been written by fans of hers as it almost reads like a résumé or an advertizement. 51.37.54.188 (talk) 17:21, 19 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
I don't think this article adequately summarizes the article used as a source for the comments about dieting. The article headline talks about "January diets", the article text talks about "yo-yo diets" and discusses the tendency for people to return to their original weight, and concludes with comments on the importance of mental health. The article in isolation seems reasonable enough but the summary of it here makes it seem like she objects to dieting and healthier eating in general. I think the wording need to be improved and unless more sources are added I think the specific source article is better characterized as being "against yo-yo dieting" and the current summary suggesting she is against dieting in general seems a bit unfair. -- 109.76.225.144 (talk) 01:34, 21 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
