if it's a reader, why is it "they"?

An astute reader should be willing to weigh everything **they** read...

Read up 'singular they' on Wiki, it seems to be quite a topic of debate around.

As @sundown has pointed out, if the desire is to keep "they” gender-neutral, one way the sentence can be fixed without violating the norms of English grammar is to change the main subject to the plural:

Astute readers should be willing to weigh everything they read, including anonymous sources.
