Journalists sure do love “fact checks”, don’t they? Well, now they’re getting a taste of their own medicine. Taylor Lorenz got fact checked by Elon Musk’s new Twitter, and she’s not taking it too well.
If you will recall, Taylor Lorenz left the New York Times, joined the Washington Post, and shortly thereafter doxed the woman behind the Libs of TikTok account.
Looks like someone is getting her just desserts.
She’s going full bunny boiler here on Elon Musk:

She’s definitely not petty or mad or anything, though.
If anyone has information about Birdwatch btw, I’d love to hear from you! Looking into pasts notes by certain users I’m very interested in learning more about the behind the scenes process. Feel free to DM me for best contact number ๐

Taylor is entering into internet lolcow territory.
Seriously, though, it’s amazing to watch Taylor Lorenz act totally hysterically and unprofessional, and all the while keeping the entire management hostage and afraid to fire her for fear she will… complain on Twitter, or maybe go cry on MSNBC.
Lorenz is now pretending like she’s going to go use Twitter alternative Mastodon.

Hilariously, she’s also taken to endlessly promoting her Substack lately, although she pretty much appears to still be glued to Twitter for now.
Twitter may not be around much longer, subscribe to my Substack to keep in touch!!? https://t.co/C7ucdl0zAO
