How many major entertainment companies are run by Jews? The answer may surprise you

 

 

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.
