” and its “concerning history of broadcasting misinformation, particularly regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.” The letter highlighted Rogan’s Dec. 31 episode in which his guest was discredited scientist Robert Malone, who promoted an upcoming antivaccine rally.
In the letter , the health professionals said they are “calling on Spotify to take action against the mass-misinformation events which continue to occur on its platform.”on the open letter from the health professionals regarding Rogan’s propagation of COVID misinformation. “Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Joe Rogan has repeatedly spread misleading and false claims on his podcast, provoking distrust in science and medicine,” the letter says. “He has discouraged vaccination in young people and children, incorrectly claimed that mRNA vaccines are ‘gene therapy,’ promoted off-label use of ivermectin to treat COVID-19 , and spread a number of unsubstantiated conspiracy theories.
The letter concludes, “This is not only a scientific or medical concern; it is a sociological issue of devastating proportions and Spotify is responsible for allowing this activity to thrive on its platform.” In the Dec. 31 episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan hosted Malone, who has been kicked off Twitter for spreading COVID misinformation. “Dr. Malone used the ‘JRE’ platform to further promote numerous baseless claims, including several falsehoods about COVID-19 vaccines and an unfounded theory that societal leaders have ‘hypnotized’ the public,” the health professionals’ letter to Spotify said.
