Israeli media researcher, publicist, and academic Amir Hetsroni has publicly accused journalist and radio host Tzlil Avraham of living off his finances for the past decade. Hetsroni, known for his controversial political and social statements, claimed on the social media platform X that Avraham's television and radio programs, which he stated have low ratings, are funded by money that comes from him. He further noted that he never participates in these programs and that Avraham, whom he called a "demicolo journalist," has blocked him.

Hetsroni, who holds a doctorate in communication from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and has taught at various Israeli academic institutions, including the Academic College of Emek Yizrael and Ariel University, has frequently used social media to express his anti-Zionist views and sharp criticism of Israeli society. He believes that public broadcasting is unnecessary and should be shut down.

Tzlil Avraham is an Israeli journalist and host of podcasts and radio shows, primarily focusing on economics, literature, and other topics. She has written for various Israeli media outlets, including "Mako," "Kan 11," "Yedioth Ahronoth," and "Haaretz," and hosts the economic podcast "Hayot Kis" for "Kan 11."

This is not the first time Hetsroni has drawn public attention for controversial remarks. He recently faced criticism for comments he made about religious and Muslim women, suggesting that women wearing head coverings should undergo psychiatric treatment and making a non-scientific observation about a correlation between head coverings and high BMI.
