A Reuters social media editor posted on Facebook late on Wednesday saying he did not conspire to damage a protected computer, after accused of conspiring with hackers to deface a Los Angeles Times story.
Federal prosecutors say 26-year-old Matthew Keys provided the hacking group Anonymous with login information to access the computer system of The Tribune, the Times' parent company.
According to the indictment handed down last week, a hacker altered a Times article posted in December 2010.
He posted a statement on Facebook saying he did not commit the crimes of which he's accused.
Meanwhile, Reuters hired Keys in 2012. He has been suspended from his job.
