Elon Musk Intensifies Criticism of Disney and CEO Bob Iger

Musk questions Disney's advertising on Meta platforms amid allegations of child-sex trafficking content, calls for Iger's immediate firing.

  • Elon Musk has intensified his criticism of Disney and its CEO Bob Iger, questioning why the company continues to advertise on Meta platforms despite recent allegations of child-sex trafficking content.
  • Musk's anger towards Disney began after the company, along with several others, pulled advertising from X, the social media platform Musk purchased and rebranded in 2022.
  • Musk has called out Disney for its continued advertising on Facebook and Instagram, even after a lawsuit was filed against Meta, the parent company of these platforms, alleging they failed to identify predator networks on their sites.
  • Musk has also called for Iger's immediate firing, escalating his attacks on the Disney CEO.
  • Disney, along with other major companies like Apple, IBM, Lionsgate and Paramount Global, pulled ads from X in response to an antisemitic post by Musk, which he has since apologized for.
