Social media defends Dallas TV anchor after she was body-shamed online

Channel 8 traffic reporter Demetria Obilor made the news recently, but not for her work.  A now-deleted Facebook post criticized her for her weight and attire. Twitter users quickly called out the sexism inherent in that criticism. Others simply praised Obilor for doing good work.  Obilor posted a video thanking supporters and saying, "This is the way I am built."
