Located on the homepage of the popular news site, the article, titled ‘Canada Goose Jackets Perfect for Men and Women’ reads like an advertisement for the coyote-killing company. There is no mention of the goose down used to fill the interior of the coat. There is no mention of the coyote fur used to trim the hood. There is no mention of the huge controversy surrounding the company – from its sale to a US equity firm to the traps used to hold and torture coyotes before they’re killed.
This isn’t journalism. This isn’t what we’ve come to expect from the Huffington Post. And it certainly won’t stand.
