We need media appeal tribunal now.

We can work like this.

The media has a right to speak their minds, but when we speak our minds they remove our comments.

Don't buy Sowetan don't buy.

Beautiful women - hope they remember that their careers in modelling is very short and that they work on a long term plan for when their modelling careers come to an end - one thing that i truly h.ate is the alteration of the pictures (photoshopping) so the models's skins look lighter, they change their eye colour, take away all the lines and problem skins, and they look super - but when you see them in real life, you often wont look at them twice ... think it is bad for us women and children to be exposed to these pictures which are not of "real people" and our daughters will do anything to be just like them, causing lots of problems ... The media/eish!
