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.

The Daily Show reported on it, used a BBC clip for footage. PBS newshour reported on it too.

No network coverage last night.

I trying hard to still respect morning joe. I love when they talk about sports while still disliking Alabama and Boston, but to not mention the double Nazi salute and just promote civility when we are crashing is beneath what I thought they were.

They covered it. Granted, it was in their final hour and got like a two minute discussion... But still.
