In the old days, newsrooms had “desks.” There was the city desk, the sports desk, etc. This editor sometimes thinks he’s been assigned to the transgender desk because the stories just keep rolling in. Last week on NBC News NOW — NBC’s attempt at a streaming service — they talked about how abortion “access” impacts the transgender community and featured one transgender man who talked about his experience having an abortion.
Abortion access also impacts the transgender and non-binary community. NBC's @simplyzinhle joined @MorganRadford and @VickyNguyenTV to share one trans man's experience having an abortion.

Pew Research Center says 1.6 percent of U.S. adults are trans or non-binary, and we’d say that number is high. And we like how NBC News NOW files this under “Abortion Battle” in its chyron. Won’t someone think of the men who find themselves with an unexpected pregnancy?

We simply can't move forward as a country tackling the big issues (recession, inflation, wars, terrorism, corruption) until we solve this far-reaching problem of trans-men access to abortions.

Woman has a legal abortion 20 yrs ago. Has since decided she wants to live as a man. And now doesn't agree with the Dobbs decision.
How is this news?

As we always say, don’t just be on the lookout for fake news — keep an eye on what stories these media outlets choose to cover and while they choose to ignore.
