German term
nahe legte
Seine Lästereien könnten TV-Moderator Oliver Pocher teuer zu stehen kommen. Weil er einer Zuschauerin vor laufender Kamera eine Schönheits-OP nahe legte, soll der Comedian nun zwischen 5000 und 10.000 Euro Schmerzensgeld zahlen. Die Summe ist Pocher jedoch viel zu hoch.

Because he told a member of the audience on camera that she should get cosmetic surgery.
I hate this guy anyway - He just seems such a smark Alec who is so full of himself. I don't see anything remotely amusing about humiliating someone in this way.
