Television companies working with Cannon refuse to answer questions

Fox Television and the producers of actor Nick Cannon's upcoming daytime talk show are remaining silent about the TV host's recent anti-Semitic tirade, which included comments claiming that Jews control the global banking system.

Cannon, host of the Fox TV show The Masked Singer, praised anti-Semitic Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan and claimed people of African descent are "the true Hebrews," a trope meant to undermine the Jewish people's connection to Israel. His comments, made on his YouTube talk show, have sparked a fierce backlash from pro-Israel and anti-hate groups, including the Anti-Defamation League.

Cannon also spread classic anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about Jews controlling the global monetary system, saying, "Going as deep as the Rothschilds, centralized banking, the 13 families, the bloodlines that control everything even outside of America."

Fox Corporation, which owns The Masked Singer, did not respond to Washington Free Beacon requests for comment on Cannon's anti-Semitic tirade. Lionsgate's Debmar-Mercury group, which is producing a new daytime television show featuring Cannon, also did not respond to Free Beacon requests for comment. The co-presidents of Debmar-Mercury are Mort Marcus and Ira Bernstein.

Cannon had kind words for Farrakhan, one of the most prominent anti-Semites in America, saying during the video that "every time I've heard him speak, it's positive, it's powerful, it's uplifting … for whatever reason, he's been demonized."

Cannon also claimed that Jewish people and "Zionists" have "too much power."

Yes Nick, demons often do get demonized. And Farraclown has his lucifer act down pat.

When secular Jews stop writing articles that say, “As a white person, white people suck,” and then cry, “ But I’m not white, I’m a Jew!” when needing victimhood status, I might listen to them. Until then, f them.

[Eleutheria5]

Fox has jumped the shark.

[PermaRag]

Instead of condemning this racist monkey, the secular, atheistic, ultra-liberal tribe of self-loathers who controls the media will instead drop to their collective knees and plead for his forgiveness.

Exactly as they would have done had those same words been uttered by a white conservative, no doubt.

I’ve had a number of Jewish friends, ever since the neo-Nazis made the mistake of mistaking me for a Jewess and a suitable target for their hate. It’s crazy, but there are people who actually will draw Nazi symbols on your property to try to intimidate you. Sad people. Pathetic people. These sad and pathetic people are troubled. They are not the majority. By the same token though there are plenty of Jewish people all caught up in the social “justice” movement, and they are no better than the silly whites being all twisted around in self-hate.

It’s black privilege to be as antisemitic and racist as one wants to be.

[Striperman]

White people are the racist ones to question his integrity.

[BlackAdderess]

Nick Cannon has a good career, a beautiful wife, and beautiful babies. If he thinks he deserves better, and that he has anyone to blame for a deficit of life’s blessings unjustly due and owing, he needs to justify that. Otherwise, he is punching down.

[MeganC]

This is being totally silenced in the media.

[CrimsonTidegirl]

I’ve seen posts from the so-called “Black Hebrews” on YouTube and other sites.

They are a violently racist group who need to be classified, along with antifa, as a Terrorist Organization.

People really need to read up on them and their twisted, racist beliefs.

They love to use the term “White Devil” to describe Whites.

Nick Cannon (never heard of him until this) is living in America and speaking English.

Stop appropriating my country and my culture!

Cannon Fired

Adios, Nick Cannon! – At least from ViaComCBS, which terminated its relationship with this mysteriously popular entertainer who has aspired to be the Black Ryan Secrest. Cannon formerly hosted “America’s Got Talent,” and currently serves as the host of Fox Television’s “The Masked Singer.”

After Cannon was revealed to have made heinously repugnant anti-Semitic comments on his YouTube podcast about Jews, ViaComCBS released him yesterday, and issued this statement:

That’s great and well-deserved. Too bad the Democrat Party refuses to do the same kind of thing with its blatant anti-Semitic members of congress like Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. But that would require intellectual honesty and integrity, attributes no longer possessed by the Democrat Party.

But back to Mr. Cannon: Everyone needs to carefully read what he actually said and understand he was not making despicably bigoted and racist remarks only about Jews. In the course of his comments, he characterized every white person on earth as sub-human and “closer to animals.”

Here are actual quotes from his rant:

“When you have a person who has the lack of pigment, the lack of melanin that they know they will be annihilated, therefore they know that however they got the power, they have a lack of compassion, melanin comes with compassion.”

“Melanin comes with soul, that we call it soul, we soul brothers and sisters, that’s the melanin that connects us so the people that don’t have it, are, and I’m going to say this carefully, are a little less and where the term actually comes from, and I’m going to bring it back around to Minister Farrakhan, where they may not have the compassion.”

“When they were sent to the Mountains of Caucasus, they didn’t have the power of the sun. The sun started to deteriorate them. So, they’re acting out of fear, they’re acting out of low self-esteem, they’re acting out of deficiency, so therefore the only way they can act is evil.”

“They have to rob, steal, rape, kill and fight in order to survive. So these people who didn’t have what we have, and when I say ‘we,’ I speak of the melinated people, they had to be savages, they had to be barbaric because they’re in these Nordic mountains, they’re in these rough torrential environments, so they’re acting as animals, so they’re the ones closer to animals, they’re the ones that are actually the true savages.”

[End] Note that ViacomCBS limits its condemnation of Cannon’s inclusively racist remarks about all white people to his attacks on those of the Jewish faith. Apparently, Cannon would have been perfectly okay had he just gone after generic white folks.

Note also that Fox, Cannon’s other current employer in his role on the highly-rated “Masked Singer,” remains studiously mute on the matter.

Cannon engaged here in rancid, racist hate speech, pure and simple, just as Louis Farrakhan does in every speech he delivers. I had fully expected both of these media giants to simply ignore this incident, but now that ViacomCBS has at least partially stepped up to the plate, it’s hard to see how Fox can remain hidden away in a corner of the dugout. But hey, you should never ever underestimate the mendacity and lack of integrity of a big media operation, so don’t hold your breath.
