Too Many Letters in the Word

Atkisson--like most people--is having trouble with the Feds on a simple FOIA request. 

....It’s one of countless examples in the past decade of federal agencies thumbing their noses at Freedom of Information requests, whether filed by member of the public or news media.....

I think Atkisson is mis-spelling the red-highlighted word.  Too many letters in it.

Should be feral.

That's an accurate description of the agencies we all know and hate.
