I am in agreement that it was intending to be "coverage", but that the follow-up response is what makes it worth discussing. If he had admitted to making a typo, then it would have been a complete non-issue. It was Trump's failed attempts at putting a deeper meaning behind a typo, in order to avoid admitting to the slightest mistake, that made it noteworthy.

No further explanation was given during the briefing. Some reporters, observing that Spicer did not appear to be joking, were concerned by the implications.
