Boston Globe Apologizes for Incorrect 'Transgender Boxer' Headline on Imane Khelif
Aug 3, 2024, 10:43 PM
The Boston Globe has issued a correction and apology for incorrectly describing Algerian boxer Imane Khelif as transgender in a recent headline. The error, which appeared in the Friday print edition, was labeled as 'regretful and unacceptable' by the newspaper. The original headline, 'Transgender boxer advances,' was a misrepresentation, as Khelif is a cisgender woman. The Globe's mistake, based on an AP story, has drawn criticism from various quarters, including accusations of spreading false information. The IAB has not asserted that Khelif is transgender.
