Four Corners on the ABC is doing a programme tonight on gender distress in children. Very difficult topic for a lot of people, but there’s people here that might be interested. Link to article 4 corners. Airs at 8.30 pm on FTA also on iview shortly after. Four corners usually does a pretty good job of airing all sides of a debate.

    What is with the trans community and Media Watch? I’ve seen this shit before in the Australia subreddit and it’s always the most unhinged, speculative conspiracy theory stuff. I don’t understand how anyone can regularly watch that show and come to the conclusion that Paul Barry is trying to use his platform to spread an anti-trans ideology.

    Media Watch has reported on trans issues in the media several times, and in each instance it’s been focused on the role of the media only. They have, on several occasions, been heavily critical of sections of the media attempting to whip up anti-trans hysteria - the complete opposite of what some people seem to think they are doing. I get why people in the trans community are volatile and defensive, but they only hurt themselves when they go off on these bizarre witch-hunts based on little to no evidence.
