Foxtel CEO Patrick Delany Apologizes For Nazi Salute Photo
Foxtel CEO Patrick Delany has issued an apology after an image of him performing a Nazi salute emerged online.
In a statement to Crikey, Delany said he was “shocked” to see the image, which he claimed showed him “demonstrating the similarity” between the Nazi salute and a gesture made by Australian Rules football fans. Delany has followed up with an all-staff email in which he said he was “very sorry for my actions” and “sincerely [apologized] to to people who have been hurt or offended, especially members of the Jewish community,” adding: “The picture is completely inconsistent with my values and beliefs, and family connections.” Delany was a signatory to a Say No to Anti-Semitism letter sent out in November, a month after the Hamas-led attack on Israel that sparked the ongoing conflict in Gaza that has left tens of thousands dead.
