According to TikTok users such as @justplainzack, the original version of the article stated that Slate had filed a formal complaint with Sony about a particular incident, but in a later revision, the wording was altered to say it was an incident that just got back to Sony.

A TikToker highlighted this change, questioning why The Hollywood Reporter had altered the wording without disclosing the updates to readers. The TikToker also noted the shift in tone, from the original statement implying a formal complaint to a more vague explanation that did not suggest an official grievance had been filed.
The TikToker makes note of an “em dash” that gave away where changes had been made in regards to the original text to show it has allegedly been updated for a third time.
This has sparked outrage among readers who want to understand why the article was changed without clarification. Many feel that the lack of transparency raises concerns about journalistic integrity and whether the publication is trying to downplay or obscure the facts of Slate’s alleged complaint.
As the debate continues to unfold, people are eager for clarification on what truly transpired regarding Slate’s complaint and why the article’s wording was modified. The controversy has sparked wider conversations about the importance of transparency in reporting, particularly when it comes to high-profile stories involving public figures. The situation highlights the need for publications to be more cautious when editing content and to always notify readers when changes are made to an article’s details.
