Can Media Create Negative Body Images?

Shari Dworkin and Fay Wachs make the argument that ads tell men and women that the ability to have a healthy body is reachable if you by products and take care of yourself. Michael Levine and Sarah Murnen make the argument that eating disorders are too restricted  but more that a variety of social, behavioral, and cultural issues that cause girls to develop negative body issues that attribute to eating disorders. The text makes the point that since media is at the forefront of our everyday lives that there should be a direct connection between the images that are developed.
