UPDATE: ViacomCBS Fires Back After Nick Cannon Slams Them For Dropping Him

-- A spokesperson for the media giant is responding to Nick's criticism, which included allegations Viacom banned all advertisement that supported George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. The spokesperson said,"Due to the comedic nature of the show we believe is in question 'Revenge Prank,' we didn't want to be insensitive by placing ads for it next to important and serious topics, such as Black Lives Matter.

Nick had also reportedly claimed he reached out to the chairman of ViacomCBS. The rep tells TMZ ..."It is absolutely untrue that Nick Cannon reached out to the Chair of ViacomCBS."'s 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."

Someone is trying to.claim that? On purpose? 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

Cant blame racism and be a racist.

Anyone who stands by him is racist! No different than those who stand by Trump! A racist is a racist no matter his skin color. I don’t stand by racism!

NickCannon Bro take that capital L and run. All you’re doing now is asking for extra credit L’s...

They mad cause he told the truth about something we all know to be total facts.

Diddy you do realize that NickCannon was fired for promoting anti-semitic rhetoric that originated from Adolf Hitler... Right? I mean this is basically Nick Cannon right now:

Nick Cannon is a loser. And his show was shyte.

He helped them do the same thing to RKelly. He’ll be alright.

Glad to see at least one network isn't a huge hypocrite! ANYONE who speaks out with a racist tone should be treated the same, no matter what race they are or speaking about! It's wrong to speak generally when speaking about any group of people!

Hello, I made this album to preach on mental health and help save people from depression and suicidal thoughts. Kindly listen, and share with friends

Yay, he's a freak!

We see the large amount of racists saying they agree with him here. Maybe they were too dumb to understand the full context ? You cant say a race has 'a history of' then add in a animal comparison to a whole race and it not be racism.

What a 🤡

He needs to blame himself. You can’t get mad when you make racist or anti-Semitic comments and get fired for it. No brand wants to be associated with that stuff (well, except for the companies that still sponsor Tucker Carlson, that is).

Cancel culture goes both ways

We are fighting for equality not superiority, that was the wrong thing to say at this moment, so he got what he deserved.

The people who are taking up for him are showing their true racism.

The same Viacom that owns Black Entertainment Television aka BET.

Good for ViacomCBS for standing their ground against vile anti semite and racist NickCannon

Now FOX needs to fire him from the Masked Singer.

Their George Floyd and Breonna Taylor sophistry is weak AF.

He should be fired, and never allowed to work again. He should also be banned from all social media platforms. He is a Racist!

This man needs to shut up! He's an embarrassment to himself!

I think that Nick got what he deserved, and yes I am a woman of color!

This headline leaves out the scumbag racist comments he made. Try again TMZ

I don’t understand how people want success and fame designated off of attention of the masses but still want to have opinions.

Dont bite the white man that feeds you🤷🏽‍♀️😄

We are done with Viacom. The backlash will be vicious and relentless. 🤡🤡🤡🤡's
