Taylor Lorenz has become a meme as a crying liar journalist. She is an embodiment of journalist elitism.
But the Washington Post is having a hard time holding this bitch up because she keeps just openly lying and they have to issue long corrections. This isn’t really sustainable. She is lying in a way that can’t be covered up. All of these people are saying “actually, I didn’t say that” and “no, she never contacted me at all.” If they are going to keep publishing this bitch, they’re going to have to have some more serious fact-checking on the things that can be easily disproved.
All journalists lie, but they lie in ways where they can never be caught – the most infamous of which being “sources say.” Lorenz can’t stop from lying about things that can be immediately and trivially proved to not be reckless mistakes by deliberate lies.
For whatever reason, the entire media has doubled-down on Lorenz, making her the avatar of the oppression of journalists by normal people on the internet. This MSNBC piece summarizes it:
But the more she gets caught lying, the more this narrative becomes a kind of self-harm, where people are like, “well, no wonder this bitch is getting ‘harassed’ – she’s lying about everyone on purpose.”
How long can this go on? https://t.co/tlLy6L30u6

Go read the lengthy, multi-pronged Washington Post “corrections” of the Taylor Lorenz story. They don’t describe reckless errors the way she’s displayed on so many other occasions. They describe outright fraud: deliberate, self-interested lying.https://t.co/lSWor7cnCO pic.twitter.com/DnQUFApCje

By adding major corrections to her stories, misogynistic Washington Post editors are bullying Taylor Lorenz and inciting violent online harassment against her.
Next on MSNBC, we’ll talk to the victimized reporter from her childhood home in Greenwich…

Please read this thread and then remember that a) this behavior is very common for corporate media: they just don’t usually get caught and, more importantly, b) these are the people who say the internet must be censored to protect you from disinformation:https://t.co/vLRwiyqGjf

Fox News is asking me for a comment about Taylor Lorenz. I don’t talk to the media so I’ll say it publicly.
“Taylor Lorenz wrote an obvious smear piece conflating Depp support with financial gain. She flagrantly ignored the fact I’ve covered this case for year…” 1/?

“…While mischaractering what Adam Waldman said during the Depp trial. She got the factual items about their relationship wrong as well. Crazier, she lied about contacting me in The Washington Post and tried covering this up AFTER I called it out publicly. 2/

I noted this publicly at 8:31p on Jun 2nd. She wrote me over an hour AFTER I posted this, in a blatant attempt at backtracking. Additionaally, she conflated protected earnings from the site Social Blade to fit her obvious hit piece, saying I made up to an estimated 80k. 3/

Social Blade notes a low of 4.7k to 79.1k; not only did she omit the low end, she ADDED to the highest. This from someone claiming to be better than Youtubers. If she wanted a real story, she’d ask domestic abuse survivors why they back Johnny Depp. But hey. MONEY right?” Fin

I gave this to the Fox writer in my DMs as my comment.
I made it publicly because
1. I do not trust the press. With good reason. No offense to this writer.
2. This should be VERY transparent bc the public should know how the mainstream works. No more hidden backroom BS

This is the Johnny Depp story in question.
But as Glenn Greenwald says, this is only the most recent and most egregious example of purposeful lying. Lorenz also hunted down and doxed Libs of TikTok, so she’s maliciously trying to destroy the lives of anyone who questions the globalist elite regime.
She is not even a journalist – she’s a hitman for intelligence agencies. With the Libs of TikTok thing, it was admitted that she got the dox from German intelligence. Germany is a proxy state of the United States. That dox was real, but when she doesn’t get information directly from intelligence agencies, she just lies to make her stories more outrageous.
It’s just absurd. This has become cartoonish.
