Taylor Lorenz on the Difficulty of Online Harassment

If you've spent any time on the Internet, chances are, you know who Taylor Lorenz is. The blogger turned New York Times and later Washington Post reporter is arguably the most relevant journalist on the Internet — sometimes for better or worst. A fascination of the American MAGA conservative movement, Lorenz's reporting and her bombastic personality's drawn the ire of the world's richest man and Twitter owner Elon Musk, as well as former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. And when those fires start, Lorenz can sometimes fan the flames on social media, putting her at odds with her more cautious past and current employers.

You can pre-order Taylor's book "Extremely Online: The Untold Story of Fame, Influence, and Power on the Internet" (out October 3rd) here. You can follow here on Twitter here.
