Oh, how I miss that old "preview post" feature, your old software offered. Uh - “obviously isn’t” and not “isn’t obviously”, plus “Winter” not “Wnter”…

I mean, unless "Winter" starts smiting people or trying to extort money from parts of the country, it doesn't really have very far to go. Perhaps the "blogroll" and the fact that the agency is identified as the one conducting the "interview" is pretty subtle, but the thing isn't obviously being written by a season and by using the third person, they're sort of covering their ass. It looks to me like an effort to get some links and maybe produce an agency buzz, something that's apparently working. Maybe they could go a little further with a copyright notice or something, but the consumer does sort of have to take some responsibility for themselves. After all, you can't really call it deliberately misleading.
