Showtime not firing Stephen Jackson following anti-Semitic defense — for now – New York Post

Stephen Jackson has actually protected DeSean Jackson over anti-Semitic social media posts.

Showtime has actually distanced itself from Stephen Jacksons comments defending anti-Semitism, however it is not cutting ties with him at this point.

” We know Stephen Jacksons current statements,” a network representative stated. “Regardless of his intentions, Stephens comments were painful and inconsistent with the worths espoused by this network.”

Stephen Jackson hosts a Showtime podcast with fellow former NBA gamer Matt Barnes called “All The Smoke”. The show is currently on hiatus after its very first season. It is unclear if there will be a Season 2.
