A Washington Post features editor was denied a promotion days after the paper’s internet reporter Taylor Lorenz publicly criticized him on Twitter for a “miscommunication” involving one of her stories, according to a report. Washington Post“It is absolutely untrue that Taylor’s tweets had anything to do with management decisions,” Washington Post spokesperson Kris Coratti told the New York Post. Soon afterwards, FoxNews.com noticed that The Washington Post “stealth edited” the story and deleted the claim. The Washington Post then published several corrections as well as an editor’s note in hopes of quelling the controversy. “Last Thursday, an incorrect line was added to a story of mine before publishing due to a miscommunication with an editor,” Lorenz tweeted on June 4.
