Above is the actual cover of this week’s InTouch Weekly. InTouch’s reckless “reporting” and photoshopping of Keeping up with the Kardashian–star Bruce Jenner is not only damaging to the image of transwomen everywhere, but also represents a new low for the rag. The irresponsibility, particularly after the death of a trans-teen Leelah Alcorn, in publishing an article/cover has no place in 2015. If the rumors of Jenner’s transition are true, the media should not treat Jenner as an oddity, but as a person finally finding who they are—shouldn’t that be something we collectively celebrate and not exploit for shock value?
