Meet MOEDA Ambassador - Tracy Hinson, KSDK Meteorologist & Reporter

Tracy Hinson is a meteorologist and general assignment multi-skilled journalist at 5 on Your Side. She specializes in delivering St. Louis' most accurate weather forecast and storytelling. You can catch Tracy's forecasts weekends on Today in St. Louis and her reports throughout the week.

Tracy made national headlines when she was body shamed by a troll and responded publicly. Her response "Dear Mary, yes I do watch my air checks. NO I will not be strapping myself into a girdle because you don’t like my belly. I like pasta, bread and cheese too much to obsess over my weight. I like my body and that’s all that really matters.  Tracy #nomorefatshaming" From that moment on, Tracy has become a body image and eating disorder advocate by continuing to reinforce the message that body shaming is not acceptable and every body is worthy of love.

Tracy has continued to support MOEDA and our mission. We are honored that she has accepted the position of MOEDA Ambassador. She is a role model and her voice has reach throughout St. Louis.

"I'm proud to support MOEDA and the incredible work they do. Youth programs like "Feed the Facts" are long overdue in schools. I have no doubts that "Feed the Facts" will have a positive impact on our community and our future."
