8th grader fights airbrushed images

Brooke talks with 8th grader Julia Bluhm who presented "Seventeen Magazine" with 20 thousand signatures in an effort to get the magazine to publish one unaltered photo spread a month. Bluhm says photoshopped images lower girl's self-esteem and present a false image of beauty to teens. The petition has now surpassed 40,000 signatures.
