After talking to Kanye directly, I believed he was capable of a thoughtful discussion about his recent statements and actions.
Unfortunately, he used 'The Shop' to reiterate more hate speech and very ugly stereotypes, Maverick Carter, 'The Shop' CEO, via CNN.
While 'The Shop' embraces thoughtful and difficult topics, we have zero tolerance for hate speech and will not air it on any of our channels under any circumstances.

I take full responsibility for believing Kanye wanted a different conversation.
While I understand this may leak, I hope others choose to do the right thing and not give hate speech an audience of any kind, Maverick Carter, 'The Shop' CEO, via CNN.
Recently, West received backlash for wearing a "White Lives Matter" shirt.
The phrase, which is defined as a hate slogan by the Anti-Defamation League, is often used by white supremacist groups.
He defended the decision in a Fox News interview with Tucker Carlson.
West was also recently suspended from Instagram and Twitter due to posts that were characterized as antisemitic.
