Dan Shilon

After Dan Shilon called presenter Sharon Gal a "piece of an idiot," he faced sharp criticism from screenwriter Meni Assayag. Assayag stated that Shilon, sinking into oblivion, is trying to grab attention with toxic remarks.

The sharp confrontation in the i24NEWS studio spiraled out of control after Sharon Gal confronted Dan Shilon with a shared post comparing Benjamin Netanyahu to Nicolae Ceaușescu. Shilon refused to back down, defended his position, attacked the interviewer – and the conversation ended in an exchange of accusations and personal barbs.
