What does anti-trans bias in media look like?

It looks like an article about complaints over the mere existence of a transgender character in a TV show that came from less than 0.0001895% of the show’s viewers, needlessly amplifying the bigotry of an infinitesimal number of complainers and granting them unwarranted attention.

Worsened by a headline that treats the number of complaints as significant and worded as though they hold some validity.

@amaditalks Am I dumb for not having realized Rose was trans? Did they mention that at some point and I just missed it?

Anyway, I bet Doctor Who gets 100 complaints about *something* every week - Who fans complain a lot! So yeah, weird they don't report all the other complaints.

@cherold it was a part of Rose’s motivation for saving mom, from what I’ve been told. I have not yet seen the specials so I can’t say for sure. I am not a viewer yet, everything I know about the show is via osmosis from my friends and from using Tumblr.
