While left-wing media has been mostly supportive of the procedures, the Times has covered both sides of the debate, including the scandal at a U.K. clinic where autistic children were pressured to undergo gender changes and the banning of such treatments by several European nations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have actually been covering the news,\u201d Shapiro said. \u201cNow, this is something the Left is not used to. And you\u2019ve got to sympathize with the Left because for literally decades, all The New York Times did was basically cover the left-wing agenda and do so in glowing fashion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The New York Times is now under fire from LGBTQ+\ud83d\ude3a-&#038;$\u2602\ufe0f# activists who insist that the Times stop objectively covering the evils and predations of the radical trans movement.

One article was deemed problematic because it mentioned a transchild seeking sexchange. \u201cpatient zero,\u201d The term used by the letter writers \u201cvilifies transness as a disease to be feared.\u201d Another article questioned the possibility that schools could teach a child to transgender identity without their parents being aware.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd now the alphabet people are very, very angry at them,\u201d Shapiro said. \u201cAnd they\u2019re looking to cancel The New York Times and particular writers.
