Critics ripped USA Today this week after the outlet edited an op-ed by former high school athlete Chelsea Mitchell attacking Connecticut codes allowing biological males to compete in girls’ sports.
Mitchell wrote Saturday in USA Today about her ongoing legal battle against the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference (CIAC) to reverse recent rules allowing transgender females (biological males) to participate in girls’ sports. The outlet edited Mitchell’s piece Wednesday, removing and replacing instances where Mitchell referred to transgender competitors as “male” or alluded to their male physiques.
