Foxtel CEO Patrick Delany has issued an apology after an image of him performing a Nazi salute surfaced, with Delany explaining it was a mimicry of a gesture made by Western Sydney Wanderers fans. The photo, taken about a decade ago while he was Fox Sports CEO, was published by Crikey, leading to significant backlash, particularly from the Jewish community. Delany expressed deep remorse, stating the gesture was inconsistent with his values and beliefs. He has since met with Jewish leaders to apologize and reaffirm his commitment against antisemitism.

This incident has occurred amidst rising antisemitism and Islamophobia in Australia, highlighting ongoing community tensions.
