TV anchor on 'fat' e-mail: 'It lit a fire in me'

TV news anchor Jennifer Livingston has become something of an internet sensation for speaking out against a guy she calls a bully.

After seeing her on the news, he wrote an e-mail criticizing her for her weight and telling her she's not a good example for children (and girls in particular).

Well, Jennifer responded loudly and proudly on her morning newscast (you can watch the full video here)!

She joins HLN's Evening Express to tell us why she decided to confront him on live TV. We also ask her why she didn't just ignore this guy!
