Social media influencers and bloggers are getting a lot of flack lately.
From the White Moose Cafe's run-in with blogger Elle Darby to Instagram accounts like bullshitcallerouter exposing influencers for using photo editing to make themselves appear thinner.
It seems many of these stars are misleading their followers.
However, more concerning is the belief that these doctored images are putting huge pressure on young followers to look a certain way.
According to HSE figures released last year, the number of teenage girls hospitalised due to anorexia and bulimia has almost doubled over 10 years.
The Hub's Dave Duke spoke to Colette Sexton, News Correspondent with The Sunday Business Post, about influencers, photo editing and its negative impact on fans, and the future of influencer marketing.
You can listen to The Hub Monday to Friday from 9:50pm.
