Fox News is facing accusations of altering Associated Press (AP) and Reuters articles to incite animosity against transgender individuals.
A media watchdog group discovered instances where Fox News modified the language of these articles, including direct quotes, using terms like “sex change” or “sex reassignment” instead of the more widely accepted term “gender-affirming care.”
Fox News has also reportedly altered or removed terms such as “care” and “medical care” when discussing the healthcare needs of transgender people.
Critics argue that by not disclosing these changes, Fox News is distorting the true implications of legislation affecting transgender youth.
