US EditionReader's View: Coverage of Trans-Athletes Speaker Was Biased
- During an interview on The Joe Rogan Experience Wednesday, NFL player Aaron Rodgers expressed his opposition to transgender women participating in female sports competitions.
- His stance joins similar opposition from former Packers Brett Favre and Donald Driver and follows President Trump’s February executive order restricting women’s sports to biological females only.
- A survey conducted in January by The New York Times and Ipsos, which included 2,128 American participants, showed that 79% opposed allowing transgender women to compete in female sports categories, with opposition from 67% of Democrats and 94% of Republicans.
- Rodgers labeled the transgender movement "anti-woman" in sports and cited biological differences, while Trump said the policy defends "safety, fairness, dignity, and truth."
- The debate highlights issues of fairness and safety, with reports of female athletes losing medals and experiencing higher injury risks, while schools face potential withdrawal of federal funds for permitting transgender participation in sports.
