Previously: The Biden Demands Social Media (And Fox News, Spotify) Silence People Who Disagree with Him
Joe Rogan is the single most popular media personality in America, with 4 times the audience of the number 2, Tucker Carlson.
Spotify paid 100 million dollars for him.
This is a fragile situation. Spotify would almost certainly collapse as a company if they fired Joe Rogan, and I’m sure it’s in his contract that if they do fire him, they can’t stop him from broadcasting elsewhere. He has the ability to just make his own website, with Chinese and Russian services, and continue to do his show until he’s arrested under new domestic terrorism programs for disagreeing with official Democrat Party doctrine.
A group of 270 scientists and doctors are pressuring Spotify to crack down on content from Joe Rogan, the most popular podcaster in the U.S. One of the group’s complaints? His interview with doctor and scientist, Dr. Robert Malone.
Rogan isn’t merely the most popular podcaster in the country — he is, by some metrics, the most popular figure across the entire media.
It was recently reported that Rogan gets an average of 11 million views per podcast episode. The podcast’s closest competitor is Tucker Carlson Tonight on Fox News, which gets an average of 3.21 million views.
Like Rogan, Tucker Carlson is also frequently the target of censorship efforts, but these have not dented his dominating position in cable news.
The group of experts who wrote to Spotify asking them to censor their most valuable personality objected to Rogan’s interview with Dr. Robert Malone, a doctor and scientist who conducted some of the earliest research on mRNA technology, which is used in Pfizer and Moderna’s coronavirus vaccines.
Dr. Malone, who objects to the use of mRNA in COVID-19 vaccines, was permanently blacklisted from Twitter.
India has a more competent and objective mainstream media than any Western country
Malone’s interview with Rogan, which was released just a few days after his ban from Twitter, was one of the podcaster’s more viral episodes.
The doctor’s contention that western societies are suffering from “mass formation psychosis,” a kind of collective hysteria brought about by shared feelings of fear and manipulation from outside authorities, proved particularly viral, with clips of Malone’s discussion of the concept viewed millions of times on social media.
Here’s that clip, which is being deleted everywhere because it is very important to government and corporations that you not be made aware that you’re in the middle of a total psychotic breakdown.
(Nb4 “he defamed Adolf Hitler!” – you’re just going to have to table that complaint for a bit.)
Joe talks about a lot of things you’re not supposed to talk about.
