Abstract
The purpose of this article is to analyze media coverage of Thomas Beatie's pregnancy, a US transgender man, in 11 online newspapers from 4 countries: Guardian.co.uk and Times.co.uk (United Kingdom); NYTimes.com and ABCNews.com (United States), El Mundo.es, El País.com, ABC.es and Vanguardia.com (Spain), and IlCorriere.it, Repubblica.it and IlGiornale.it (Italy). We investigate the length of news articles, the quoted sources, the links embedded in the information and the use of nouns and gender references. The results show how difficult it is for the selected media to address the coverage of this issue.
