I love how they immediately change her name and Pronouns.


Yes, when you search for her, she's still under her birth name, Andy. It's unfortunate that she was forced to come out, but i respect IMDB for immediately changing her name and pronouns. Kudos to you!

What makes you think she hasn't? And what business is it of yours?

Basic, common courtesy is to use the gender pronouns that she prefers.

The AP style guidelines for news and media are very very clear on this:

transgender Use the pronoun preferred by the individuals who have acquired the physical characteristics of the opposite sex or present themselves in a way that does not correspond with their sex at birth. If that preference is not expressed, use the pronoun consistent with the way the individuals live publicly. See transsexual.

And since when was journalism supposed to work like that?

Umm you literally quote your answer. Journalists are the one that define AP style.
