Journalist becomes victim of hate over Yair Netanyahu recording
The Channel 2 reporter who exposed the Yair Netanyahu recording is now facing hate mail and threatening comments left on his Facebook page.
Guy Peleg, the Channel 2 journalist who exposed the Yair Netanyahu recording
last week has been receiving threats and hate mail over the publication.
Peleg's private Facebook page was bombarded with nasty comments: "May you get head cancer you piece of s***, trash," was one comment left by a detractor.

Others questioned why he was still a free man or accused him of terrorism and being "human garbage". Many of the insults were unashamedly posted from real and identifiable Facebook profiles.
The grounds for the assault is the release of a recording of Yair Netanyahu, the Prime Minister's son, at a Tel Aviv strip club together with the son of an Israeli natural gas tycoon Kobi Maimon; Yair can be heard talking offensively about women and boasting about his father's dealings regarding drilling for natural gas and the huge profits it generated for Mr. Maimon.
