Someone needs to hand the OC Register a copy of the Associated Press style guide on referring to transfolk. They didn't mis-pronoun her at least, but if she's legally name-changed there's no reason to print her prior name other than to humiliate her publicly.

the OC Register would be unlikely to care.

This is Orange County's print media version of Fox: the paper of record for loony rac^H^H^H anti-immigrant anti-school anti-tax "libertarians" who feel that the right-centrist LA Times is the definition of liberal media.

Tim Leary used to amuse himself towards the end of his days by writing outrageous right-wing screeds under pseudonyms that were just enough over the line that you tell it was parody; the OC Register always printed every word without comment.

OH.

When Marc was found out to be the Soda Jerk bandit, he at least had a humorless streak and a problem with authority so you could kinda see that he COULD do it. This is just totally left field!
