It is the style policy of most major news organizations that transgenders are identified by the name they prefer and the gender by which they live publicly.
The Media Research Center’s purported “news” division, CNSNews.com, does not follow that policy, mostly because it hates the LGBT community. Thus we have a July 17 article by Annabel Scott repeatedly referring to “Bruce ‘Caitlyn’ Jenner” and identifying Jenner as “he.”
Scott did not explain why she deviated from standard journalistic practice.
Even less bound to standard journalistic practice is the MRC itself. Transphobic sports blogger Jay Maxsonmangled Jenner’s identity further in a July 27 NewsBusters post in which he referenced “Olympic decathlon champion Bruce (nee Caitlyn) Jenner.”
Maxson appears not to know that “nee” means formerly, which means Maxson is falsely claiming that Jenner changed her name from Caitlyn to Bruce, instead of the other way around.
That’s not the only thing Maxson got wrong, though; he also claimed that Jenner was among “lefties” who criticized President Trump’s declaration of a ban on transgenders in the military. In fact, according to Scott’s CNS article, Jenner has been a Trump supporter and says he believes in limited government.
