Our Jewish Response to Antisemitism Isn't Working (Judean Rose)

When Kanye (Ye) West finally managed to out himself as an antisemite, the response was predictable. Demand an apology. Demand that the offender’s lucrative business deals be canceled. This is the pattern we’ve seen over the past several years, as antisemitism grows, even in America, the Goldene Medina. But is it working? It certainly didn’t work with West. The rapper only...

So far, Nick Cannon has done the right things

The Nick Cannon story is evolving quickly. I have expressed my doubts that a conspiracy theorist could listen to facts and respond to pain from others, but so far – and it is still very early – Nick Cannon is doing the right things. On his Instagram, it shows that he brought Rabbi Abraham Cooper of the Wiesenthal Center as a guest on his program – and some of his fans are...

Nick Cannon’s apology: Sincere or career-saving PR move?

Nick Cannon issued two apologies to the Jewish community on his social media: First and foremost I extend my deepest and most sincere apologies to my Jewish sisters and brothers for the hurtful and divisive words that came out of my mouth during my interview with Richard Griffin. They reinforced the worst stereotypes of a proud and magnificent people and I feel...

The mainstream media was completely irrelevant throughout the entire Nick Cannon story

As I was discussing the Nick Cannon story last night with Dovid Efune of the Algemeiner, I complained that the mainstream media was ignoring the story of a very famous person publicly spreading hate. (Starts at about 18:00) I take this personally. On Saturday night, Judean People’s Front tweeted the details of the offensive video, and I put together a post about it on...

Nick Cannon has released a long statement about CBS firing him. It shows that he has absolutely no clue or regrets about his bigotry and racism and instead wants to position himself as a victim of anti-Black racism. I am deeply saddened in a moment so close to reconciliation that the powers that be, misused an important moment for us to all grow closer together and...

Viacom/CBS fires Nick Cannon for antisemitism; will @FoxTV, @NBCUniversal and @Power106LA follow?

On Tuesday night, Viacom/CBS announced that they will terminate their relationship with Nick Cannon, whose antisemitic and racist comments were posted here on Sunday morning. 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...

Here is what I wrote in response to Nick Cannon’s Facebook statement (see my last post.) it is really aimed more at the Black people who are his fans, and I doubt it will make a difference (especially being buried under hundreds of other comments) but I wanted to at least try to inject some truth in what was a pretty bad thread. __________________ I hope that...

Yesterday, I tweeted “I wouldn't want @NickCannon to be fired. I would want him to have an articulate Jewish guest on his podcast that can explain to him AND HIS AUDIENCE why his beliefs are offensive and wrong, where he is free to ask questions.” The reason I say this is twofold: One is that cancel culture is evil, and that applies to both sides, although there...

NBC and Fox host Nick Cannon is a racist, antisemitic nutcase

Nick Cannon is an actor, comedian, rapper, director, writer, producer. Most people are familiar with him as being the host on NBC’s America’s Got Talent and Fox’s The Masked Singer. Two weeks ago, he hosted Professor Griff, who was part of the rap group Public Enemy and had already been known to be antisemitic and anti-gay. In 1988 he said, “If the Palestinians took...
