"The report reviewed articles published between January 1 and April 25 across 10 major outlets. According to the analysis, The New York Times published 60 news stories centered mainly on transgender issues during that period. Only 12 included quotes from transgender people or advocacy representatives, a rate of 20 percent."
"Publisher A.G. Sulzberger defended the paper's journalism, saying newsroom leaders had engaged extensively with critics and concluded the coverage 'has indeed been fair and comprehensive.' He described the reporting as 'rigorously reported and edited' and 'respectful of the people we're covering.'"
An analysis by Assigned Media revealed that The New York Times, while leading in transgender-related coverage, quotes transgender individuals or advocacy organizations only 20% of the time. The report examined articles from January to April across ten major outlets, finding that The Times published 60 stories on transgender issues but only included quotes from trans people in 12 of them. Advocacy groups express concern that this approach treats transgender individuals as subjects rather than active participants in discussions about their lives.
