skepticism, UK racism story, and burden of proof

This came up in the the lady in waiting UK thread

Woman A posted what she claimed was a transcript of the conversation

Woman B did not comment or dispute the transcript (or assert as true or false)

Many on the thread think that is evidence that transcript is true.

But does that ran afoul skepticism? The burden of proof is on the person making the claim. Woman A presented no evidence for her claim. One is not required to deny a claim with no evidence.

How should skeptics handle this?
