Richard Belzer Gives Nazi Salute on Local Fox Station to Express His 'Ideological Opposition' to Fox News
Law & Order: SVU star Richard Belzer probably won't be invited back on Fox 5's Good Day New York anytime soon, considering he used his most recent airtime to make an off-color rape joke and followed it up with a Nazi salute directed at Fox News.
Belzer was asked to look at the camera after a viewer pointed out that co-anchor Dave Price looks enough like him that he could play his brother on Law & Order.
"If he gets molested and banged in the ass," Belzer retorted to the nervous chagrin of his hosts.
Soon after, as the segment was wrapping up, Belzer lifted his arm to mimic a Nazi salute and told the anchors to "say Heil to all your colleagues in the other division." His rep later explained to TMZ that Belzer's salute was meant as "a satirical gesture toward Fox News...whose ideology he is opposed to."
The gossip site points out that Belzer, who is Jewish, had an odd penchant for saluting in Nazi fashion, having done it recently while on the red carpet.
