CNN under fire for misgendering Dylan Mulvaney: 'Unbelievably bad'
[NYPOST] CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network , now who know what it might stand for...
is under fire for misgendering Dylan Stench of Death Mulvaney
...the transexual influencer who single-handedly trashed a major American beer brand owned by a Belgian company, tainted Maybelline and Condé Nast, and then demanded that anybody who called him/her/it a man be arrested...
as "he" and "him" in a segment about the "culture war" being waged over the transgender influencer’s partnership with Bud Light.
Correspondent Ryan Young failed to use the 26-year-old influencer’s preferred pronouns in a short segment about the backlash against the beer giant that has led to plummeting sales.
Young also mispronounced Mulvaney’s first name as "Dylvan" while describing the social media star to "CNN News Central" viewers Tuesday.
"He, of course, is the transgender person they were going to sponsor and go along with, with Bud Light," Young said, using "he" instead of Mulvaney’s preferred "she."
"But [trans activists] didn’t like how Bud Light didn’t stand by him after all this," Young said, again failing to use the influencer’s preferred "they."
Neither Young nor host Kate Bolduan, whom he was talking to at the time, corrected the misgendering — finding themselves part of the very "Bud Light backlash" they were reporting on.
