New Jersey's Trentonian Corrects Offensive Headline After GLAAD Outreach on Transgender Terminology

As many of us know, umemployment and workplace discrimination are much too prevalent within the transgender community.  On Sunday, the Associated Press sounded a hopeful note with their report about an exciting new initiative aimed at curbing these problems in San Francisco, an initiative that many transgender advocates are hoping will soon become a model for other cities.

GLAAD and others were thrilled to see this story picked up by newspapers across the country.  Much less thrilling was the headline assigned to the story by The Trentonian, a New Jersey newspaper with a circulation of more than 32,000.
