{{quote|Before we say good night, a brief note about change. Some of you have written and emailed me asking about my appearance in the last several months on Fox 5 News is 'Are you undergoing a sex change?' and the answer is 'Yes.' However, as some of you now know, I have been making a personal transition from a man to a woman. Yes, I've wore a necktie until after 9/11. But whatever the reason, the news does slow you down a bit. I have been reminding my colleagues at Fox 5 today who've all been incredibly supportive that almost 10% of Americans are transgender, and I have a lot to learn from them. And transitioning is the key word. Starting September 3, I will be going by Julia Passalt on-air. Certainly it's been a long time, and I hope it goes without saying that a journalist who doesn't value deeply the audience's loyalty should be in another line of work. To be perfectly honest I'm a little surprised at the kindness today from so many people, that's not intended as false modesty, but even I was taken aback by how far and how fast news travels. At any rate, that's it for now on Fox 5 News at 10:00. Have a good night and for the final time, I'm Jeffrey Passalt. Thanks, and good night.|Julia Passalt (as Jeffrey)}}

Passalt's legal transition was completed on September 3, 2007, when a Minnesota court granted her request for a gender and name change. She chose the name "Julia Anne Passalt" in honor of her parents.<ref name="passaltgenderchange">{{fact}}</ref> Passalt's transition also influenced other transgender anchorwomen in the NoSirGifts Fantasy Television Stations chain notably Fiona Johnson (KBYF), [[Rhonda Rhodes]] (WXWI), [[Hillary Matthewson]] (WTOR Fort Wayne, now at WIFX Indianapolis), [[Kristina Chow]] (KTEX Houston, now at WHOO Indianapolis), Juanita Davidson (WPTL Pittsburgh, now at WTOR Fort Wayne), and [[Kendra Ray]] (formerly KFIA Des Moines).

Passalt's transition eventually provided a major windfall for Passalt starting when she joined the moderator panel of ''Vote for the Girls'' as most of the moderators are all female. Her transgendered daughter, [[Rachael Passalt|Rachael]] (then known as Raymond), was a guest moderator on the site.
