Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said Wednesday the company does not have plans to stop selling the antisemitic film that gained notoriety recently after Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving tweeted out an Amazon link to it.

Pressure has been mounting on Amazon to discontinue sale of the film, called "Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America," since Irving shared the link to the documentary with his millions of Twitter followers in October. The synopsis on Amazon says the film "uncovers the true identity of the Children of Israel."

"As a retailer of content to hundreds of millions of customers with a lot of different viewpoints, we have to allow access to those viewpoints, even if they are objectionable – objectionable and they differ from our particular viewpoints," the Times quoted Jassy as saying. Dozens of celebrities, public figures as well as Jewish organizations and the Nets have called on the company to take down the film or add a disclaimer offering an explanation as to why the documentary and related book are problematic.

The Seattle-based company did not reply to request for comment sent by The Associated Press earlier this month on whether it would add a disclaimer or not. Jassy, who is Jewish, said Wednesday that Amazon has employees that flag content, but scaling that more broadly could be challenging.

So people aren't allowed to think their own thoughts and make those thoughts available publicly? Unless of course someone else adds that those views may be problematic. Lol. Everything can be spun as problematic if people take offense.

If we removed anti-christian content their wouldn't be much left.

This is just wrong. Bad bad bad decision!😡😡😡

…claimed to be antisemitic

Does everyone have 1st amendment rights? Or is that just for Kanye, Elon and Trump?

Why not talk about people trying to censor speech? You're the problem CTV News. You're liars and no one believes you.

Where are all those weirdos condemning Kyrie? Surely you have that same energy right?

What is anti semetic about this film? Meanwhile Kyrie Irving gets suspended for tweeting the link to the film. Just let that sink in. A movie about black Isrealites, is deemed anti semetic and posting the link will get you canceled but the distributer get a finger wagged at them.

CTV news. “As irrelevant as always.”
