New vision emerges of attack on Bolt

New vision has emerged of the moment Sky News host Andrew Bolt fought back against masked protesters who assaulted him outside book launch in Melbourne.

Two men attacked the Sky News host and News Corp Australia columnist after a book launch at an Italian restaurant on Melbourne’s famous Lygon St at 12.15pm on Tuesday.

Mr Bolt told Sky News he was approached by a woman who wanted a selfie when he was ‘jumped’.

‘Two masked protesters then jumped me, spraying me in the face and all over my suit with some sticky liquid with some glitter and dye,’ he said.

The columnist called the men ‘left-wing fascists’ on Twitter and said it was a ‘cowardly’ attack, which shows ‘another warning of the rising violence of the left’.

Victoria Police say the two men were wearing hooded jumpers and were believed to have thrown shaving cream and glitter.

The new footage comes as Mr Bolt asks viewers to open their wallets for a good cause, auctioning off the suit ruined in the attack.
