I'm almost 100% certain that the suit was referenced by media either in print or video as the "Kraken" before she went on air and called it that. If I remember right, the media outlet said something like "Powell's suit, which she calls the 'Kracken' heading to court" or something. I vividly remember watching this first on air interview with Dobbs and thinking "please don't seriously call this the Kracken" because I thought the nickname sounded stupid... it was also fairly recent after the Seattle NHL team announced their name to be the Kraken, and so that name had already been on my mind for a while.
