Media: Reject False Claims Linking Trans People to Violence

In the aftermath of Charlie Kirk's death, right-wing media outlets, including Steven Crowder and The Wall Street Journal, propagated unverified reports suggesting that the alleged shooter's ammunition was inscribed with "transgender and anti-fascist ideology." These claims were swiftly amplified across conservative platforms, labeling the incident as "trans terrorism" and calling for the "trans movement" to be designated a terrorist organization. 

This rush to judgment not only misrepresents the facts but also fuels baseless fear and division. Media outlets must uphold their responsibility to report accurately and refrain from spreading misinformation that targets marginalized communities.
