'In case you were wondering:' Jeryl Bier takes a look at how far media's coverage of attempted assault on Larry Elder has come [screenshots]

As we told you, the Washington Post’s Dave Weigel rather dismissively covered Larry Elder’s remarks about the recent attempted assault on him by a white woman in a gorilla mask.

“Egg-throwing incident.” Not great, Dave.

But credit where it’s due: at least Weigel covered it. Not many in the media can say that.

In the days following the incident, media were largely conspicuously quiet on the subject. As independent conservative journalist Jeryl Bier points out, as of today, that hasn’t really changed.

Let’s have a look, shall we?

In case you were wondering: @CNN dot com has yet to mention the egg-throwing assault on California gubernatorial candidate Larry Elder by a woman wearing a gorilla mask.

In other news, CNN *has* reported on gorillas at Zoo Atlanta treated for Covid-19.https://t.co/OlAn6Pp9qJ
