For your final assignment, you will write a 1,000-1,200 word enterprise feature story. Your feature will have at least 3 sources but you can and should other source material, such as studies, statistics and reports. If you take something from another news article, make sure you attribute it to that publication. You should not put citations in your article. This is a journalistic work so your attribution comes in the article. You should have a headline, byline, clear lead and nut graf, golden quote, supporting information, secondary sources and background information. This must be submitted by the deadline. I will not accept it after the due date so be aware. Canvas will stop allowing submissions after the due date.
I have a first draft of it and professor's comment. Please write the feature with example that I used in the first draft.
Professor's comment of the first draft: You need to structure this as a feature story not an essay. You need a lead, you need a golden quote, you need a nut graf, you need shorter paragraphs, you need to have way more sources and move the actress portion lower as an example but not the main part of the story. You need to keep yourself out out the piece.

SHANGHAI--In recent years, women face increasing anxiety about their bodies due to the influence of social media.
What do you think is a “perfect body?” Isn’t every woman perfect in her own way? Why are women so concerned about their body sizes and physical appearances, which is hard to control. Social media should not make females have anxiety about their physical appearance. Body perfection is the new trend that makes females perform cosmetic surgery to modify their physical appearance.

Gao had to transfer to Guangzhou Southern Hospital, where she accepted a recovery treatment. Due to the damage she got on her nose, Gao could not attend her new TV drama shooting and had to pay a high penalty for breaching a contract. Gao's situation initiated a heated discussion among numerous people. She posted this story on Weibo, one of China's most popular social media platforms. According to Gao, she was influenced by advertisements of the beauty of a high nose on social media and her friends' suggestions. In their minds, only a high nose can make someone beautiful.
