That’s them saving their ass from the inevitable defamation suit.

What’s funny (not really) it’s the media calling it a “nazi style salute” or “a gesture that looked like a nazi salute”.
Their head is so far up their asses that they can’t even call it what it was.

That’s what so many people seem to ignore. As long as the person of topic is willing to sue, media outlets will not risk the potential legal battle and will play it disgustingly safe. It sucks, but it’s hard to blame journalists trying to keep a roof over their heads by not getting fired. With something like this, anyone with 2 functioning braincells left will understand the truth and see it for what it is, we don’t need the media to tell us otherwise.

Dude has a history of winning legal cases that any reasonable observer would say he has no business winning. The media is probably terrified of a defamation suit.

It’s only a Nazi salute when it comes from the Nazi region of Germany. This is just sparkling hate.
