Sometimes there are adjustments. If I'm speaking with a researcher I may be more like "Is the spelling of your name, and your title on your University's website, what I should be using for this story? Am I correct in thinking he/him pronouns what I should be using?"
(If I'm speaking with a research about their research, I want them to understand that I'm not lazy. I'm aware of big public cues about what name, title, and pronouns are in common use.)
But, I still ask (because you never know). And, crucially, I ask if these are the right name and pronouns in the specific context of my identifying them in the story I am writing right now. No assumptions beyond that.
I probably started doing this because I've done a lot of interviews with NBs who have multiple preferred pronouns. If at all possible I want to nail down exactly what they'd prefer I use in a story about them, not have it left up to me.
But, it works with everyone. In some ways it's easier on cis sensibilities bc I come off as an earnest fact-checking journalist more so than a trans rights warrior.
This is also the recommended approach in the excellent @TransJA Style Guide.https://transjournalists.org/style-guide/
