The Washington Post and its reporter Taylor Lorenz are claiming that a profile of the person allegedly behind the Libs of TikTok account did not contain any personal information, assertions disputed by the person behind the account.
The original version of the piece, which is highly negative against the person, contained a name and an address said by some to be a personal address, in addition to an employer’s name and address.
The link was removed between two and three hours after publication.
In a statement responding to critics, the Washington Post’s senior managing editor said that “we did not publish or link to any details about her personal life,” referring to the woman who the paper said runs the Libs of TikTok account on social media.
