The Morning After: Neil Young threatens to pull his music from Spotify over Joe Rogans podcast
Rogan hosted virologist Dr. Robert Malone, who made baseless claims about COVID-19, stating a “mass formation psychosis” led people to believe the vaccines were effective. Spotify CEO Daniel Ek previously said he does not think the platform has editorial duty for podcasts. Present ARM owner SoftBank is supposedly preparing to take ARM public as an alternative to the acquisition.
Rogan hosted virologist Dr. Robert Malone, who made baseless claims about COVID-19, saying a “mass formation psychosis” led individuals to believe the vaccines were effective. In an episode that followed, Rogan competed that a rare heart condition had actually been linked to vaccines when it was in fact linked to those that had actually contracted COVID-19. Spotify CEO Daniel Ek formerly stated he doesn’t think the platform has editorial responsibility for podcasts. Present ARM owner SoftBank is reportedly planning to take ARM public as an alternative to the acquisition.
