Lorenz, a former New York Times journalist who broke down in tears on MSNBC earlier this month when recalling internet "abuse," released an article on Tuesday revealing the identity of the social media user. The act of posting personal information of persons who prefer to remain anonymous is referred to as "doxing."
After it was stated that Lorenz came up at the home of the woman's relatives to ask inquiries, some accused her of hypocrisy. The "Libs of TikTok" account, which has over 662,500 followers and broadcasts TikTok videos from liberals, shared a photo of Lorenz outside the home of one of her relatives.
“Which of my relatives did you enjoy harassing the most at their homes yesterday?” reads the text next to a photo of a woman who looks like Lorenz.
