Internet post: “The Everett Railroad Brings Back the Magic of the Steam Engine.” But the image is that of a train pulled by two diesel locomotives. The incongruity goes unnoticed.

Front page LA Times: “No medal, but trans athlete makes history.” Article celebrates biological male who decided as adult to identify as female, and now competes against female weightlifters. The incongruity goes unnoticed.

The authors of the railroad article cannot recognize a real steam locomotive. The authors of the sports article cannot recognize a real female athlete. But we have no right to criticize them. We can’t recognize a real journalist. That is, I don’t think we could, assuming we could find one.
