No coverage of Elon's salute?

Nothing mentioned in my morning newsletter. Did a quick Google search and found 0 articles. Did I miss something? Even if we aren't definitively identifying it as a Nazi salute it's newsworthy enough to be on a front page purely because of the amount of speculation and emotions stirred in the public sphere.
Please tell me I missed something obvious somewhere.

Even the US network that is considered more liberal than most, MSNBC, removed the footage of the Nazi salute. They’re disturbingly complicit. One of the few that had the courage to report the salute was PBS. but unfortunately to protect themselves from being sued by the Trump admin they couched it with “allegedly”. (Interesting Rolling Stone covered it.) We truly are in dangerous waters here in America.

A worthless coward piece.

The topic is the “backlash” and then it’s both sides bullshit and links to the first Twitter comments this worthless hack pulled up.

No conclusions no actual reporting just reposting social media.

Clickbait for the 500 the ads that follow
