Elon Musk Says Disney CEO Bob Iger ‘Should Be Fired Immediately’

Elon Musk wrote Thursday on X that Disney CEO Bob Iger should be ‘immediately’ terminated.

Billionaire Tesla owner Elon Musk wrote Thursday that Disney CEO Bob Iger should be “immediately” fired, coming after the company pulled advertisements from his social media platform.

“He should be fired immediately,” wrote Mr. Musk on X, formerly Twitter. “Walt Disney is turning in his grave over what Bob has done to his company.”

Around the same time, the X owner questioned why Disney is not pulling its ads from Meta after New Mexico sued the social media giant and alleged Meta, the parent company, has not done enough to protect children. Instagram and Facebook are “not safe spaces for children but rather prime locations for predators to trade child pornography and solicit minors for sex,” Attorney General Raúl Torrez of New Mexico said in a statement this week.

On X, one user pointed out that Disney appears to still be advertising on Meta’s social media platforms, drawing criticism. “Bob [Iger] thinks it’s cool to advertise next to child exploitation material. Real stand up guy,” Mr. Musk wrote in response.

Neither Disney nor Mr. Iger have publicly responded to Mr. Musk’s post. The Epoch Times has contacted Disney for comment.

After the lawsuit was filed, Meta issued a statement strongly denying claims that its social media platforms put children at risk.

“We use sophisticated technology, hire child safety experts, report content to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, and share information and tools with other companies and law enforcement, including state attorneys general, to help root out predators,” Meta spokesperson Nkechi Nneji said in a statement.

Last week during a New York Times interview, Mr. Musk accused companies who pull their ads from X of blackmail. “If somebody’s gonna try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money? Go [expletive] yourself,” he said.

“Go [expletive] yourself. Is that clear? I hope it is. Hey, Bob, if you’re in the audience,” he added, in an apparent reference to Mr. Iger, chief executive of Disney.
