Philadelphia radio host Chris Stigall has launched a transphobic attack on state Health Secretary Dr. Rachel Levine, according to a published report.
According to the LGBTQ news site, Pink News, Stigall told listeners during his show on Monday morning on 990 AM that “they keep trying to make you feel sorry for Cousin It out there, and that’s not going to work. Nobody’s in the mood to talk about the poor put-upon gender-confused health secretary.”
Levine, a transgender woman, has endured repeated transphobic attacks during the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. Some have focused on her management of the public health crisis, but many more, such as Stigall’s, have been deeply personal.
