On Monday, 100 Percent Fed Up reported about Hollywood actor Nick Cannon’s recent episode of his podcast, “Cannon’s Class,” America’s Got Talent host Nick Cannon offered a hate-filled, racist and anti-Semitic rant. Cannon hosted rapper Professor Griff, a well-known anti-Semite, for an interview in which they promoted anti-Semitic conspiracies about Jewish families secretly controlling the world and claimed that black people can’t be anti-Semitic because they’re the real Semitic people.

“In order for me to be anti-Semitic, I’d have to be anti-black man, anti-black woman, anti-black people, anti-Africa, anti-all other people,” Griff said.

“Because the Semitic people are black people,” Cannon added.

Cannon and Griff spoke positively of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, a longtime anti-Semite, which has garnered more than 250,000 views on YouTube alone.

TMZ has reported that the Hollywood actor, comedian, and MTV host has been fired. The announcement came Tuesday afternoon, amidst a downpour of outrage and backlash toward the ‘Wild n’ Out’ star after he made very controversial claims on his podcast that many considered deeply troubling and downright hateful.

Turns out, Viacom agreed. They severed ties on Tuesday, stating, “ViacomCBS condemns bigotry of any kind and we categorically denounce all forms of anti-Semitism.”

“We have spoken with Nick Cannon about an episode of his podcast ‘Cannon’s Class’ on YouTube, which promoted hateful speech and spread anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. While we support ongoing education and dialogue in the fight against bigotry, we are deeply troubled that Nick has failed to acknowledge or apologize for perpetuating anti-Semitism, and we are terminating our relationship with him.”

Cannon is defending his position, firing back at ViacomCBS after it dropped him for making anti-Semitic comments — and he’s now claiming it’s the media giant that’s being divisive, not him … and he has a list of demands.

“The Masked Singer” host responded to Viacom’s decision Wednesday morning, saying, he’s “deeply saddened” the company “misused an important moment for us to all grow closer together and learn more about one another” and, instead … he claims it’s trying to “make an example of an outspoken black man.”

Cannon vows to not be bullied or silenced, and says Viacom “does not understand or respect the power of the black community.”

Cannon says … “I honestly can’t believe that Viacom has such poor council that would allow them to make such a divisive decision in the midst of protests and civil uprising within our current pandemic. Truly an unwise decision.”

He goes on to say he hoped his comments could lead to reconciliation and he could “use this moment to show healing and acceptance” … but claims Viacom has no interest. He also accuses the media giant of banning all advertising that supported George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.

Nick acknowledges he’s had an incredibly successful past with Viacom — including his Nickelodeon days and the creation of ‘Wild ‘N Out,’ but says the company is “now on the wrong side of history.”

Scholars have long debunked the claim that skin melanin levels are linked to intellectual abilities.

The anti-Semitic rant was first highlighted by a Jewish blogger on Sunday. Cannon previously hosted Nation of Islam representative Minister Tony Muhammad on his podcast, where Muhammad called for a separate black state. “We want Caucasians and this government to give us a separate state or territory like you did Israel,” Muhammad said.

Here is the interview in its entirety. The anti-semitic discussion about people coming into “consciousness,” begins at about the 9:30 mark:

Do you think George Soros is behind the protests?

Cannon’s personal website lists his publicist as W&W Public Relations, but W&W executive Karen Lee told the Daily Caller News Foundation that they don’t represent Cannon and don’t have a contact for his current publicist.

To sum it up—anti-semitism is okay—racism against blacks is bad.

Louis Farrakhan—Minister of hate is good—President Trump, who’s done more for the black community than any other President since Abraham Lincoln is a “racist.”

Got it…
