Headline is a little nonsensical.

"Even though" isn't used that way. It's supposed to be, "Even though X, there is Y", Y being something that you wouldn't expect would follow from X. But in this case one would expect a donation to trannies to follow from an apology to trannies.

That's modern journalism for you I guess. Fuck grammar give us clicks.

No that's me editorializing. I guess that's why I'm not a journalist making the big bucks.

Oh, brain fart on my part then, apologies. For some reason I had it in my head that your title was quoting the article title.

As you are not a journalist (nor am I fwiw) I can easily excuse you for not proofreading.
