Caitlyn Jenner’s introduction to the world has been, thankfully, one the majority of the world has been really nice about.
Except… except for Fox News, which – true to form – has managed to dig out the nastiest, meanest angle on Caitlyn’s transition and gone to town on it.
More news!
Last night Twitter jumped on one segment that aired in the States showing two Fox News presenters misgendering Caitlyn and repeatedly referring to her as ‘Bruce Jenner’.
They also mock Caitlyn’s appearance on the Vanity Fair cover, comparing her to a “Playboy Bunny” and laughing.
“Bruce Jenner – let’s give him credit, he is the only person on planet Earth who knows how to one-up his most famous stepdaughter, Kim Kardashian,” the anchor says to the camera.
“That’s how he unveiled his new identity… [he says he’ll] use female pronouns from now on,” she adds. “He looks hot! Or should that be, she looks hot!”
Ugh.
Her male co-host, Neil Cavuto, also got blasted on Twitter by comparing Caitlyn’s transition to “the last days of Rome”.
Sigh.
Let’s all look at Caitlyn’s cover again to end on a happy note.
Ahh.
