(CNN) ViacomCBS is ending a decades-long relationship with Nick Cannon after he recently made anti-Semitic comments on his podcast. "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," the statement read. "The Masked Singer" host also disputed that such views were anti-Semitic because, Cannon said, Black people are the "true Hebrews." — Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) July 13, 2020I am an advocate for people's voices to be heard openly, fairly and candidly. — Nick Cannon (@NickCannon) July 13, 2020"I do not condone hate speech nor the spread of hateful rhetoric," he wrote.
