Just a day ago, ace journalist Aaron Rupar and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were outraged that Twitter CEO Elon Musk would retweet such a racist graphic. Rupar called it an example of “crude racism.” What was it?

It was a graph showing interracial crime incidents in 2018, with a TV camera focused on white-on-black crime, despite the fact that black-on-white crime was exponentially more common. This was posted obviously in reaction to the death of “beloved Michael Jackson impersonator” Jordan Neely on the New York City subway. We all have his name memorized … now name the white woman who was gunned down in an Atlanta hospital by a black man who was on “messed up medication,” according to his mother. Name the shooter if you can.

We haven’t checked Rupar’s or AOC’s Twitter feeds yet, but we’re certain they’ll brand Musk a racist for replying to this tweet:

You think? Not to mention politicians like Rep. Alyssa Pressley saying Neely was “lynched.”

Good question.

We’re treading softly around this subject — some people say the numbers are skewed per capita — but we admire Musk for calling out the media and its “firey but mostly peaceful” coverage.

Did you hear about this in the mainstream media? If we search Twitter for the alleged shooter’s name, the only journalist who shows up is Andy Ngo. The Post Millennial covered it:

Here’s what we got when we searched CNN:

We’d love for Musk to be wrong, but the media isn’t doing much to help their own case.
