Why

Why is it that when male journalists on TV news shows talk about "gay" rights and marriage equality only show video or images of gay men and only interview gay men or couples? Female journalists seem to balance the issue and people with men and women in the story. Don't women count or aren't part of the story when it comes to men?

Why is that when any journalist on TV takes about "LGBT" issue, they only mention the word "transgender" when saying the words in the acronym (LGBT),  but they never talk about the rights, lives and issues of transgender people? Don't they count or aren't effects by the same issues let alone those unique to them?

Yeah, statement of the obvious in the LGBT community, gay men discriminate against lesbians and both discriminate against transgender people. Not all, of course, just most.
