Today's patron episode went extra long, so we felt the best thing to do considering the topic was to post the whole first half as today's public "teaser." Subscribe on Patreon and hear this week's full patron-exclusive episode here: www.patreon.com/posts/78966968 Bea and Jules speak with Vicky Osterweil about the recent open letter to the New York Times critical of apparent bias in paper's reporting on trans people. In the first half, we get into the letter, the coverage that provoked it, and the Times' dismal response to the criticism so far. In the second half, we get into the conceptual problems with the coverage and some of the deeper issues in the liberal "just asking questions" framework.
