That was hilarious. Explaining what a piece of shit the guy is for the entirety of their run while remaining calm and professional....the announcer deserves a medal

    The only thing that would have been better is if the broadcast cut away to show footage of Gaza for most of the run, while occasionally showing the sport for contrast.

    This happened on the Swiss state-run news service. Which has been biased pro-Israel.

    So there was no chance of that happening.

    I’m pleasantly surprised the commentator hasn’t been fired (yet)! It was also really amazing how they managed to stay calm and composed and just recite facts lol.

    Also the swiss right wing media has gone on a frenzy calling it anti-semetic.
