Bullet points of News Corp executive shown making Nazi salute apparently mimicking Mark Bosnich in decade-old video
- Foxtel Group CEO Patrick Delany performed a Nazi salute over a decade ago, appearing to mimic former Socceroos player Mark Bosnich's infamous action from 1996
- The video, recorded during the 2014-15 A-League season, shows Delany and Bosnich on the Fox Sports Hyundai A-League set, demonstrating the studio's new virtual soccer ball
- Delany's gesture was in response to Bosnich's request to 'do it like you would have done', referencing Bosnich's 1996 incident
- Bosnich performed a Nazi salute during a break in play in front of a crowd at Tottenham in 1996, and was fined £1,000 and found guilty of misconduct by the Football Association
- Delany has apologized for his actions, saying he understands the hurt and offense caused to the Jewish community
- Foxtel confirmed Delany met with the president of the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies, David Ossip, to apologize and discuss the incident
- Ossip accepted Delany's apology and praised Foxtel's strong and unequivocal repudiation of antisemitism in Australia
- The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of educating the next generation about the atrocities perpetrated by the Nazi ideology
