Typos and spelling mistakes have been spotted in a high-profile defamation lawsuit filed by FBI Director Kash Patel, even as the case accuses a major publication of poor journalistic standards, including alleging that Patel drinks too much and misses important meetings.
The 19-page complaint, filed this week in federal court in Washington, DC, targets The Atlantic and one of its reporters, alleging they knowingly published false and defamatory claims about Patel. He is seeking at least $250 million in damages and argues the magazine acted with “actual malice”.
