No single media outlet better embodies the flaws of hyper-woke LGBT media than PinkNews, the U.K.-based website that claims to be the world’s largest voice in “gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender news.” But PinkNews is imploding under the weight of an ironic and deeply hypocritical scandal.
Over the years, PinkNews has become known for its brilliant investigative coverage, such as one piece titled, “London aquarium’s gender-neutral penguin just predicted Jeremy Corbyn will win the election.” He did not. It has also received pushback for its interesting coverage choices, such as one article glorifying creepy “age gap” relationships where middle-aged men pay barely legal teenagers for sex. But PinkNews is perhaps most known for its tendency to blast and condemn “problematic” people and “bigots,” from J.K. Rowling to, well, me. So, it’s interesting to see that the left-wing media outlet may have been projecting all along.
