So glad to see something like this in the main stream media. I saw it through Yahoo news. The news is getting out!

Katie Couric has reported countless stories on the rise of obesity among Americans, particularly children, in her 35 years on TV, she said, but she never saw attention paid to why Americans were gaining weight.

"Once I started looking into it and hearing things like this generation of children is the first expected to live shorter life spans than their parents ... I said, 'You know, we have to do something about this,'" Couric said today on "Good Morning America."
