In his short post, the broadcaster wrote: "Looking for work. A broadcaster with decades of experience and a rating of hundreds of thousands of listeners is looking for work. Only contact me with serious offers." The public appeal quickly gained traction, receiving thousands of likes and hundreds of shares.
Dan Shilon's reaction
Among those who responded to the post, media personality Dan Shilon stood out, offering his support:
"If I had a worthy platform today, I would have hired Natan Zahavi yesterday. A dear man, clean-handed, and an excellent broadcaster."
Natan Zahavi's career
This post comes about four years after he was suspended from the 103FM radio station in 2022. The suspension followed a harsh statement the broadcaster made on live air against religious public representatives and those who observe tradition.
Natan Zahavi is a prominent Israeli journalist, radio broadcaster, actor, and columnist, known primarily for his combative and uncompromising style toward the establishment. Throughout his career, he became synonymous with the popular radio program "Zahavi Asbani" on 103FM, where he gave a voice to the hardships of ordinary citizens and sharply attacked social and political injustices.
Alongside his extensive radio work, which often led to legal and public entanglements, Zahavi has built a rich resume in the print press, cinema, and television. He was awarded the Sokolov Prize for journalism in recognition of his professional achievements and contribution to society.
