Kanye West, also known as Ye now, had his social media accounts restricted after making antisemitic remarks on Instagram and Twitter.
As a result, conservative hosts like Tucker Carlson were criticized by Cenk Uygur for giving him a platform on Fox News. Joining Uygur is a former radio host and podcaster, Joe Walsh, who didn’t go after Carlson, but The Daily Wire’s Candace Owens.
Walsh quote tweeted a comment made by Investigative Reporter Hunter Walker, accusing Owens of doing the most out of any news media personality promoting West’s politics.
“All @RealCandaceO cares about is attention,” Walsh tweeted on Monday.
“So if Kanye’s attacks on Jewish people can get more people talking about Candace, then she wholeheartedly supports his attacks on Jewish people.”
West was on Friday’s edition of “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” where he made remarks that some might deem controversial, leading to people like Uygur calling out news media outlets for continuing to exploit the rapper.
“I told you that @kanyewest was deeply disturbed and was going to do serious damage,” Uygur tweeted on Sunday.
“Now he’s written that he is declaring war on Jewish people. That’s a genie you can’t put back in the bottle. Will right-wingers like @TuckerCarlson continue to exploit him anyway? Of course!!”
