Join the Scientists demanding Spotify act against Joe Rogan Covid misinformation
In the open letter signed by 260 scientists dated Jan. 10, a Dec. 31 episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience” in which guest Dr. Robert Malone (who was suspended from Twitter for spreading false COVID-19 information) promoted “baseless conspiracy theories” is used as an example of the show’s history of “broadcasting misinformation.”

From the letter signed by 260 scientists:
“By allowing the propagation of false and societally harmful assertions, Spotify is enabling its hosted media to damage public trust in scientific research and sow doubt in the credibility of data-driven guidance offered by medical professionals,” the letter reads, as it urges the platform to establish a policy to moderate the spreading of false information. “We are calling on Spotify to take action against the mass-misinformation events which continue to occur on its platform. With an estimated 11 million listeners per episode, ‘JRE’ is the world’s largest podcast and has tremendous influence. Though Spotify has a responsibility to mitigate the spread of misinformation on its platform, the company presently has no misinformation policy.”
