Assigned media is a daily news website covering anti-trans propaganda in the US.

Mainstream coverage of transgender life is falling short, while transphobic propaganda on the right grows louder and more insistent every day. Assigned publishes factual, up to date, responsible coverage of that propaganda, allowing trans people and our allies to understand where the narratives come from, separate the truth from the lies, and build a response that achieves dignity and equality for trans people in the US and beyond.

Assigned’s founder, Evan Urquhart, is a transgender journalist whose work has appeared on the Atlantic, Vanity Fair, Politico, NewNowNext, Truthout, Autostraddle, and Slate.
