Candace Owens Claims Kanye Interview “Targeted” For YouTube Suspension
Candace Owens says she’s been “targeted” after facing repercussions from her recent interview with Kanye West.
The conservative commentator’s YouTube channel has been hit hard, prompting her to announce on X that she won’t be posting on the platform for the time being. Owens claims that YouTube has demonetized and suspended her channel, citing violations tied to her interview with Kanye, particularly due to his antisemitic comments.
Candace Owens’ YouTube Channel Suspended for Violating Hate Speech Policy
Owens voiced her frustration on social media, stating, “The world knows why I am being targeted, and frankly, I have never felt more confident that I am the right person for this to happen.” She further explained, “Thus far, I have had zero strikes on my @YouTubeCreators account… I have now been inundated with 3 back-to-back content hits within minutes, plus an email that I am now fully demonetized. We all know exactly who is behind this and why.” YouTube confirmed the suspension of Owens’ channel in a statement to The New York Post.
There will be no show today, or at all this week. That’s because @YouTube has issued me a strike and a one week suspension for my sit down with Kanye. They also removed the interview as “hate speech”, as it was mass reported by Zionists.
