Melania Trump’s spokesperson Stephanie Grisham called out Quartz following its report that alleged the first lady’s one night stay in a Cairo hotel cost “over $95,000.”
Addressing the outlet Thursday, the first lady’s spokeswoman tweeted, “Hi @qz – the First Lady did not stay the night in Cairo. This is an example of irresponsible journalism & had someone (@JustinRohrlich ) fact checked things [with] me, this could have been avoided.”
The article was noticed by a CNN reporter who also tweeted that Trump “didn’t stay overnight in Cairo.”
