TIL "doxed" is the past tense of a verb meaning "document exposure". In other words, the journalist did the due diligence of researching all possible document trails... then showed too much work.

I've heard too many people use this term today (at Reddit, here, even at the LA Times) as if it were common parlance. I'd never heard it until this morning. If it weren't for the Urban Dictionary, I'd think everyone made it up today.
