I agree with your criticism, so I was pleasantly surprised that the SFGate story from a couple days ago seemed to cover this aspect well: https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/new-details-bay-area-...

I do wonder how much it's people in the media trying to protect the rest of the trans community from association with this story, and how much it's just people writing stories based on the other coverage and not realizing that the trans connection even exists.

In any case, I find it encouraging that the more recent coverage has often been more complete than that of the first couple weeks.

There is also the possibility that writers or editors feared being unpersonned.


Thanks, that looks like a good read too. I'll add it to my list.
