Jennifer Livingston, an anchor for CBS affiliate WKBT in LaCrosse, Wisc., took a moment Tuesday morning, Oct. 2, 2012, to address an email sent by a viewer who felt justified in criticizing her weight. Livingston seized the opportunity to call attention to National Anti Bullying Month – which shares October with breast cancer and domestic violence. Her stern, dignified response is making the rounds on social media worldwide.

First, I want to say that I truly admire your strength. You are a beautiful and wonderful woman, and the world only sees your greatness. People that are jealous and have a lack of control over their own lives tend to be fearful of those that have great vision and power. You just keep doing what you are doing. Remember, the person that wrote the email has the problem.
