NASHVILLE, Tenn. (TND) — Several media outlets are facing pushback for pointing out that Nashville police "misidentified" the gender of the shooter who killed six people Monday at a private Christian school in Nashville.
The clarification earned outlets like USA TODAY and The New York Times criticism from conservative commentators and others.
"We do not care about 'misgendering' a school shooter that murdered children," a reporter from conservative outlet Townhall wrote on Twitter. "Only the mainstream media would worry about preferred pronouns at a time like this."
On Monday evening, The New York Times reported on Twitter that there was "confusion" regarding the Nashville assailant's gender identity.
"Officials had used 'she' and 'her' to refer to the suspect, who, according to a social media post and a LinkedIn profile, appeared to identify as a man in recent months," The New York Times wrote Monday evening.
USA TODAY similarly made the clarification Monday night.
Besides USA TODAY and The New York Times, liberal critics of the police's misidentification piled on news outlets for "misgendering" the suspect amid their coverage of the tragedy.
"5 times CNN misgendered. No correction," a Twitter user wrote Monday evening in a thread about the shooting. "A mass shooting is horrible. Misgendering does not make anything better."

If I was one of those conspiracy nuts I just might wonder who it's handler was.
Who cares? We needs to hear POTUS riff on ice cream some more.
Anyone complaining about this person being misgendered should be redflagged and disarmed before they shoot up a school themselves.
born with balls your a man, born with a vagina your a woman. there are no other genders, just those who are mentally ill.
Well, that is the first step to insisting that she (Yes, SHE) started shooting only because someone said: “you look like a girl.”
Them’s killin’ words to a tranny. And, a justification by the commie trash in charge.
Agree 100%. The people pushing this are sick evil people. Enough of this insanity already.

She was "known to the FBI" according to sources.
The windup toys do not really need a direct handler. Just a little encouragement from an "activist" group. They will detonate spontaneously at regular intervals with only a few topical suggestions posted in the media.
Maybe they get a bit of front-end cash to buy weapons and training sessions. That is most likely coming from the "activist" groups. Several of these killers seem to bring a number of expensive toys with them and have no visible income to account for their hobbies.
Say, why don't we check out those people organizing the "Trans Day of Vengeance" for April 1. Even better, follow the sources of their funding.
