The BBC has defended its nomination of Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling, who offended many with her comments on transgender people. The British public broadcaster said offense is the "price of free speech."

Jessie Gender did a thorough analysis of the essay. @Jammidodger and several others have also gone through it. @ContraPoints, @Shaun_vids and many other youtubers have documented Rowling's anti-trans shenanigans and how it's basically become her raison d'être, much like Graham Linehan.
