When Miri Regev described artists as being a “tight-ass” and being “tedious,” she meant only the likes of Oded Kotler and Yair Garbuz, an Army Radio journalist quotes the culture minister as saying.

Earlier, a Channel 2 report aired pre-recorded parts of an interview with Regev, where she says she knew even before entering her role as minister that she would be working for “a bunch of thankless people.”

Oded Kotler is an actor and director who characterized right-wing voters as “cud-munching animals” on Sunday night.

Yair Garbuz, painter and publicist, scorned what he called “mezuzah kissers” during a speech to left-wing voters before the election.
