The Atlantic, in a desperate attempt to stay relevant, announces that #AI might not be a #bubble after all. 🤔💸 Apparently, when you throw enough digital spaghetti at the wall, something finally sticks — or at least they hope. 🤷‍♂️📉

White House reporters became the story as Correspondents’ Dinner turned into breaking news | The Independent

>In the aftermath, personal safety and professional duty blurred. The nation's most powerful reporters and editors grappled with events unfolding before, and often above, them. Many, in tuxedos and gowns, instinctively ducked for cover, driven by fear, bewilderment, or pure instinct.

>"We were under the table before we knew what was happening," wrote The Atlantic's Missy Ryan, Matt Viser and Michael Scherer of their experience.

>Emerging from cover, their mobile phones became essential tools. They captured images, recorded interviews and maintained open lines to describe the scene to off-site colleagues.

Kash Patel’s Defamation Suit Against The Atlantic Is Designed To Generate Headlines, Not Win In Court

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.techdirt.com/2026/04/21/kash-patels-defamation-suit-against-the-atlantic-is-designed-to-generate-headlines-not-win-in-court/

Recent reports say Kash Patel has filed a $250 million defamation lawsuit against The Atlantic over allegations of excessive drinking and other conduct concerns. Patel denies the claims, and the magazine says it stands by its reporting.

I had not heard of this article ( #streisandeffect ).

The fact that Kash Patel locked himself in a room and they had to breach it to get him out is honesty hilarious.

It’s not defamation if it’s true…

#FBI Director Files #Defamation Suit Against #TheAtlantic

#KashPatel, the FBI director, filed a $250 million defamation suit against The Atlantic on Monday over an article that claimed excessive drinking & unexplained absences were jeopardizing his job. A spox for the publication said The Atlantic stood by its reporting & would defend itself & its #journalists against a suit it called “meritless.”

From #LegalAF: #KashPatel has exposed himself, the #FBI, and the regime to discovery by suing #TheAtlantic about their reporting.

Accordingly: who in the #OSINT community is up to tracing his movements since appointment, @Bellingcat style, to find every place and occasion of his drinking, and every potential witness thereto?

So will Party Animal Patel have to prove in Court is it not Party Animal Patel?
Does he think all those FBI agents are lying?
