Did you know that people of size represent about 40%-60% of the U.S. adult population, yet are barely seen on prime time TV? After auditing over 100 hours of prime time programming we found that characters of size represent less than 8% of the characters we see on TV!
We intend to change that. Every week with help from viewers like you, we’ll be grading episodes of 30 popular prime time shows. And we plan on holding producers, casting agents, and advertisers accountable for shows that continually get poor grades.
We need to show the TV industry that there is a concerned community out there that is not going to support harmful and discriminatory casting any longer. Source: Nation of Size
