Sam Rubin: Kanye West a 'deeply disgraced buffoon' after antisemitic posts

KTLA's Sam Rubin weighs in on the Kanye West's suspension from Twitter and Instagram. In one antisemitic post on Twitter, West (aka. Ye) said he would soon go “death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE,” according to internet archive records, making an apparent reference to the U.S. defense readiness condition scale known as DEFCON.

They can call Kanye any insults but it's funny nobody's calling him liar. LOL.

[tomanderson]

Kanye gave us a rare glimpse behind the curtain, to see who is really calling the shots!

Damn KTLA acting like they don’t ignore the war crimes in Palestine by Israelis

[KaroKayK]

What about when Jew Sarah Silverman talked about killing Jesus. Isn’t that hate

[Barkeroni]

Kanye spoke truth.

I guess there are some groups of elites YOU CANNOT EVER CRITICIZE

[RussianMacDonald]

A deeply disgraced buffoon... wow. phenomenal journalism guys. Phenomenal.

[dglg]

KTLA has been cancelled and will continue especially with all these puppets.

[DanRec]

Lmao Rubin here literally doing the old “what do you mean you people”😅

[silentnight]

Everyone is running scared of certain people. What a hypocritical world.

[ataurus]

Report the story without judgements news guy.

[davidlether]

Thank you for your opinion corporate celebrity guy.👍

[djjamar]

Kanye is telling the truth. Honestly we understand who you work for Sam so no hard feelings your just an employee who clocked in.

If a student is suspended from 109 schools, are the teachers the problem?

[bonesdaily]

WHY DIDN'T CH.5 DO THIS FOR MARK AND LYNETTE WHEN THEY FIRED THEM ???? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[yourfriend]

I stand with Ye. We all know who controls the ENTIRE

[ytjj]

Is he lying? Who owns ktla? Most likely a Jewish guy! He talking about how they always have their hands involved in everything not that he hates them.. and sam is suggesting what he’s saying not reporting.. so to me this is a hit job. Because he’s speaking the truth and the owners don’t want the ppl to open their eyes

[koostory]

Said THIS guy, who sells out the colleague

[barbeedoll]

Wow Sam your whole tribute to Ye was more out of love than for your Ktla anchor Lynette Romero. You should be so proud of yourself for being the spokesman for such a cowardly so called news station 😢

The Tiny Hats are going into damage control after Kanye calls them out. Glad people are finally seeing the truth.
