Are you dense?

Both of those things are public knowledge.

But only one is front and center across almost all commercial media and one isn't.
It is not at all a stupid question to ask why that is.

Because one just happened last week! Like, c'mon man. We know Trump was connected to Epstien, the media has covered his known connections to Epstien, but they don't have evidence that he did anything with underage women (I'm sure he did, but we don't have evidence). Like, what do you want them to do? Interrupt coverage of the debate fallout out to remind everyone that there is no new information on Trump's connection to human trafficker that died 5 years ago? That's not the news.

Edit: Oh, I see. People think that an 8 year old lawsuit is new because media literacy is dead.
