From "Nine ways journalists can do justice to transgender people's stories" by Lauren Klinger, 2013-11-11:

"There was a time in the 1970s and 80s when every story about a gay person was the coming out narrative," Nick Adams, associate director of communications for GLAAD, said in a phone interview. But, he added, "with trans stories we're still in that period."

[...]

By concentrating on the coming out narrative, journalists may ignore other issues that affect the transgender community. With the Manning story, [Janet] Mock said, "it took days to get to the media to talk about healthcare and rights for prisoners, and those are the bigger issues. [Journalists] were hung up over 'he, she, Bradley, Chelsea' " instead of focusing on the question of how we should treat people when we incarcerate them.
