A shopping roundup recommends trench coats for what it repeatedly calls spring styling, published in late September under a headline about fall jackets. Prices range from $45 to $90, with commissions flowing to the outlet through every link.
The piece was filed by its publisher under White House coverage, a categorization this desk cannot verify against anything resembling news.
The full dispatch is available from the source below.
✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK
