Taylor Lorenz

"Wasn't this psycho on tv 2 weeks ago actually crying about the exact type of behavior that seems to be her exact business model," Donald Trump Jr. tweeted.

The Libs of TikTok account on Twitter retweeted Trump's post. Gay/trans ppl targeted by the acct have had their lives destroyed, but the *point* of the story is actually a nuanced look at radicalization & how the right wing outrage cycle functions. Lorenz reported that Raichik was working as a real estate agent in Brooklyn when she created the account. Trump is one of many conservatives who have expressed outrage over Lorenz's piece published by the Washington Post, with many accusing her of being guilty of harassment herself in her efforts to identify the previously anonymous user. but we know that won't happen," Trump tweeted. If only she tried to report on real bad actors rather than a random personalities on social...

Washington Post “journalist” Taylor Lorenz doxxed the creator of the popular “Libs of Tik Tok” Twitter account in a hit piece on Tuesday. Lorenz says the.

Libs of Tik Tok had the nerve to share angry liberals owning themselves. In addition to her creepy “reporting” tactics, Taylor Lorenz is one of the biggest hypocrites on the Twitter app. Taking down Libs of Tik Tok and anyone else who pokes fun at the woke is Lorenz’s mission. So she reported for duty and began trying to intimidate, or in her words “expose,” the woman behind the Libs of Tik Tok mask. To write the hit piece, Lorenz practiced harassment, not journalism. Lorenz doxxed the creator for just one reason: she wants to destroy her.

This week, everyone is talking about a famous social media account called 'Libs of TikTok'. That's because Taylor Lorenz, an American journalist for The ...

I feel like there are so many small stories that are so important that aren’t getting out — and that’s what I’m here for,” she continued. Libs of TikTok often shares conservative opinions and opposes left-wing, liberal views. @LibsofTikTok has become a powerful cross-platform social media influencer, spreading anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment and fuelling the right wing media’s outrage machine.

As a result of the article, which included woman's address, she moved to a "safe location." The link was removed.

"This is doxxing and smearing of @libsoftiktok by the billionaire-controlled Bezos Post." "Taylor Lorenz is a terrible journalist and worse human," Ben Shapiro wrote. Or is it just permissible if the anonymous social media user has a certain kind of politics?— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) April 19, 2022 "Is it now permissible for journalists to investigate and expose the real identity of any anonymous social media user? Is it now permissible for journalists to investigate and expose the real identity of any anonymous social media user? "There's a real story about how @libsoftiktok by simply posting videos became objectively one of the most important conservative activists in the entire country," news anchor Saagar Enjeti tweeted. Or is it just permissible if the anonymous social media user has a certain kind of politics?" WaPo only removed the link after being called out on it.— Jerry Dunleavy (@JerryDunleavy) April 19, 2022 "WaPo only removed the link after being called out on it." Grateful for all the thoughts and prayers ❤️— Libs of Tik Tok (@libsoftiktok) April 19, 2022 Grateful for all the thoughts and prayers." The link is now absent from the article.

The Washington Post responded to criticism of a Taylor Lorenz article 'exposing' the creator of the viral Twitter account, Libs of TikTok.

“[Libs of Tik Tok], in her management of the Libs of TikTok Twitter account and in media interviews, has had significant impact on public discourse and her identity had become public knowledge on social media. The Post reporter even showed up to the home of the account owner’s relatives and harassed a random Instagram user with a similar name, asserting that she was going to be “implicated as starting a hate campaign against LGBTQ people.” The Post reporter even showed up to the home of the account owner's relatives and harassed a random Instagram user with a...

Taylor Lorenz said she hoped her story on Libs of TikTok would highlight the “striking escalation of attacks” against LGBTQ and trans people as opposed to ...

Greenwald also lashed out at Lorenz on Twitter after her story was published Tuesday, claiming she “badgered” Raichik’s relatives by coming to their home to confirm Raichik’s identity. Lorenz wrote in her story that a woman at an address linked to Raichik’s name in Los Angeles did not identify herself, and said a tweet from Greenwald claiming she visited Raichik’s family’s home allowed her to confirm she had the correct house. The account’s popularity comes as GOP-led state legislatures across the country have sought to pass bills curtailing discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity in schools, and as conservative pundits like Ingraham claim public schools are serving as “ grooming centers.”

"Raichik isn't just some average woman w/ a social media account," Lorenz said about the woman behind the influential right-wing Libs of TikTok account.

"[A]ll the info in the Libs of TikTok piece was already publicly available online. "Taylor Lorenz is an accomplished and diligent journalist whose reporting methods comport entirely with The Washington Post's professional standards," Barr said. "Libs of TikTok's influence spreads far beyond its followers," Lorenz wrote.
