Kat Tenbarge
I am an award-winning journalist covering tech and culture for NBC News. I mostly focus on how social media platforms are changing the way we consume information about news, politics, celebrities and pop culture. I have covered the rise of nonconsensual sexually explicit deepfakes and how the internet impacts allegations of sexual violence and abuse. I have investigated sexual misconduct allegations against high-profiles figures in the entertainment industry and on YouTube. I also have a special interest in theme parks.
