Elon Musk is once again going after Disney CEO Bob Iger.
After targeting the executive during the New York Times DealBook summit last month, Musk, who owns social media platform X (formerly Twitter) slammed Iger on Thursday, writing, "He should be fired immediately."
Musk added Walt Disney "is turning in his grave over what Bob has done to his company."
Disney did not immediately respond to Yahoo Finance's request for comment.
The posts began after New Mexico’s Attorney General Raúl Torrez filed a civil lawsuit on Wednesday against Meta Platforms and CEO Mark Zuckerberg, a known rival of Musk.
In the suit, Torrez alleged Meta's social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram "are not safe spaces for children but rather prime locations for predators to trade child pornography and solicit minors for sex."
Disney, which pulled its advertising from X last month after Musk endorsed an antisemitic post on the platform, still advertises on Meta — prompting Musk to double down on his attack.
"Bob Eiger thinks it’s cool to advertise next to child exploitation material. Real stand up guy," Musk posted, spelling Iger's name incorrectly.
At the DealBook event last month, Iger briefly addressed why the company suspended its advertising on the platform, telling the crowd, "By him taking the position that he took in quite a public manner, we just felt that the association with that position, and with Elon Musk, and X, was not necessarily a positive one for us and we decided we would pull our advertising."
Musk, who spoke after Iger at the summit, vehemently called out Disney and other companies like Coca Cola and Apple, which pulled their advertising from X in recent weeks.
"If somebody is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money, go f*** yourself," he said.

Check out the top three institutional shareholders.
The names will sound distressingly familiar.
Iger is doing what he’s told.
Can’t do anything about the institutional shareholders.
Boycott Disney.
I’ve been doing it for years.
It’s not a hardship.
Most people are going to think that eiger is jewish because he’s a big boss in Hollywood. They could be wrong about that. Hmm. Just checked they’re not.
Hey Mr. Musk - would you like to Buy Disney, Fire Iger and clean house? My grandchildren would love some wholesome entertainment without all this woke globohomo BS.
So what Musk is calling for, is an Eiger sanction...
While firing Iger is a step in the right direction, the rot goes waaay too far inside the company with radical leftists in the creative departments that write and develop the perverted storylines.
It will take years if not decades to clean these Egean stables.
Elon buy Disney.
He should. Woke idiot.
