On his SiriusXM radio show on October 19, Howard Stern attacked Kanye West (via Mediaite). In recent weeks, West has drawn criticism for making antisemitic remarks, most recently in an interview with Chris Cuomo in which the rapper referenced the “Jewish underground media mafia.” Stern compared West to Hitler and chastised his supporters who blame West’s antisemitic tendencies on mental illness.
According to Stern, “I almost don’t want to give any energy to this Kanye West character.” “My knowledge of Kanye West is limited. I’m not a fan of the rap scene, but he is, and I’m sick and tired of people blaming his mental illness for his actions.
“Oh yeah, he’s just mentally ill,” Stern continued, “but Kanye was on the Chris Cuomo show, and good lord, you gotta hear the shit this guy’s into and fuck this mental illness, self-defense thing that he’s into. Do not stress about it. Why don’t they appoint a conservator over his money as they did with the unfortunate Britney Spears if he’s so mentally ill?
Stern praised media outlets for “exposing” the rapper even though he did not want to give West’s opinions any more airtime. He then played a clip of West and Cuomo’s conversation in which the rapper attributed his lack of media mention as a billionaire or tycoon to the “Jewish underground media mafia.”
What’s up, douchebag? They refer to me as the shock jock when they write about me. You are a rapper; you have no control over anything. You fit that description. That’s how you got your notoriety, Stern said. “Maybe it’s not because they’re Jewish, but maybe they just don’t give who the fuck you are and what you do that much thought if a newspaper article doesn’t mention that you’re some sort of designer or genius.

“This is so gloomy. Kanye used to be fun and crazy, after all. He is now like Hitler, Stern said.
On the most recent episode of his podcast, Jon Stewart also criticized West (via The Daily Beast). Similar to Stewart, who criticized West’s supporters, he questioned whether antisemitism could be treated if West had a mental illness.
The drug you might be taking, Stewart remarked, “I don’t know what drug you could get that could make you not believe there’s a cabal of Jews controlling the flow of information from your mouth to the public.”
