Instapundit - Even Snopes, which fancies itself an objective fact-checker, refused to debunk the claim that Musk gave a Nazi salute. 
"During his brief speech — available in full on YouTube — Musk said to the crowd gathered in honor of Trump’s victory, “And I just want to say thank you for making it happen. Thank you.” He then briskly extended his right hand from his heart to the crowd in front of him. He repeated the gesture for the people behind him. Then, in a moment omitted from the users’ videos, he said, placing his hand over his heart, “Thank you. My heart goes out to you. It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured, thanks to you.”[…]
We emphasize that as of this writing, Musk has not explained the gesture, nor can we read his mind to learn precisely what he intended by it. It’s possible it was a purposeful Nazi salute; it could also have been entirely innocent. The available evidence is too scant to draw a solid conclusion."
It’s really sick that at a time when the mainstream media has been raising alarm bells about disinformation, they continue to actively engage in it to serve their agenda.
