In the wake of the Nick Cannon story, I’m seeing lots of people say that the only reason he was in trouble is because Jews control the entertainment industry.
Jewish influence in Hollywood is legendary, but is it still true?
According to this 2019 Investorpedia article, the top ten entertainment companies are Comcast,
CBS, DIRECTV, Dish Network, Netflix, Time Warner, Fox, Viacom, Disney and Wanda Media.
Since then, Viacom and CBS have merged but I am counting them separately for this purpose.
How many of these companies’ CEOs are Jewish? As far as I can tell, here’s the answer at the moment:
CEO
Company |
Jewish? |
|
Comcast |
Brian L. Roberts |
Yes |
Disney |
Bob Chapek |
No |
ViacomCBS |
Robert Marc Bakish |
No |
CBS |
Joseph Ianniello (acting CEO) |
No |
Netflix |
Reed Hastings |
No |
Time Warner |
Jason Kilar |
No |
Fox |
Suzanne Scott |
No |
DIRECTV |
Manuel Abelleyra |
No |
Dish |
W. Erik Carlson |
No |
Wanda |
Wang Jianlin (chairman) |
No |
Some antisemitic websites claim Bob Chapek is a Sephardic Jew but I see no evidence of that.
Perhaps it is time to retire this myth of Jews controlling the media.
