A Reuters deputy social media editor accused of conspiring with hacktivist group Anonymous sent a message to the public via Facebook in an attempt to clear his name.

Last Thursday, Matthew Keys, 26, was indicted in California on charges that he damaged a computer and aided Anonymous' brief defacement of an article posted on The Los Angeles Times website.

Federal prosecutors said Keys, a former web producer for a Tribune Co.-owned television station, provided hackers with a company server login and password – a claim he denied Thursday on his Facebook fan page. The Tribune Co. is the parent company for the Times.
