How the media has influenced body image?

I'm doing my social studies project on how the media has influenced body image over the years.
I was just wondering your thoughts and opinions are on this topic.

The media has warped what we deem to be beautiful and this has had a clear impact on how the media influenced body image. Every paper is full of young, thin, tall, perfect looking models, and this is making young girls try and change themselves at a very young age. Young girls are dieting and spending abnormal amounts of money on their appearence.

In all honesty, girls are growing up too quickly and women are growing up even slower thanks to face creams and botox.
