MyPillow CEO Sues the Daily Mail for Defamation and Emotional Distress Over ‘Bogus’ Report About Alleged Romance with Jane Krakowski – By Colin Kalbacher (Law and Crime) / January 25 2021
MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell sued British tabloid the Daily Mail for defamation in federal court on Monday.
“Mr. Lindell seeks redress in this libel action for harm inflicted on him as the result of a thoroughly deceitful, dishonest and defamatory media article written and published by [the outlet], which falsely charges him with seducing and carrying on a torrid love affair with actress and singer Jane Krakowski —a woman whom he has never even met,” the lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York by attorney Charles Harder begins.
The pro-Trump Lindell quickly threatened to sue the London-based publication after they published a report last Thursday claiming the home pillow guru had, over the course of nine months, engaged in a “secret romance” with the former 30 Rock star.
