In the midst of recent backlash over his anti-Semitic comments, Nick Cannon sounded off Friday about the reaction to his apology for those remarks.
In this March 3, 2016 file photo, Nick Cannon arrives at the"America's Got Talent" Season 11 Red Carpet Kickoff at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium in Pasadena, Calif. Nick Cannon sounded off Friday about the reaction to his apology for those remarks.
Cannon said that Griff was "speaking facts" and amplified Griff's views that Jewish people controlled the media, likening it to the power of the Rothschild family, banking scions who have long been targets of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. On Monday Cannon posted a series of tweets about the controversy, writing "Anyone who knows me knows that I have no hate in my heart nor malice intentions."
ViacomCBS also owns MTV, where Cannon's comedy sketch series "Wild 'N Out" has been popular since its debut in 2005 and recently expanded to its sister network, VH1.
