“We support Nick in the hope that by the fall of 2021 he will be able to use his extraordinary talent and platform to entertain, enlighten, and unite his audience on the Nick Cannon talk show,” the companies behind the show, Lionsgate, and its division. Debmar-Mercury said in a statement, in which he condemned anti-Semitism and racism. Here is the full statement:
