CBS News addressed the ongoing targeting of Joe Rogan for censorship, suggesting that the podcast host is killing people by spreading COVID misinformation.
While claiming that they are in favour of free speech, the talking heads on CBS Mornings declared Rogan’s show to be “dangerous.”
“You have a First Amendment right to say what you want. You don’t have a First Amendment right to appear on a platform as large as Spotify, that’s the issue,” said one of the script readers.
After flashing up a graph showing rates of unvaccinated hospitalisations (figures grossly distorted by the lack of distinction between people admitted WITH and DUE to COVID) the gaggle agreed that the virus is a “life and death issue,” urging that Rogan should be silenced.
One of the bunch argued that you can’t just ‘turn off’ Rogan’s show because too many people won’t do that, they will continue to listen, suggesting that the only course of action is to completely silence Rogan.
Watch:
Watch as ‘CBS Mornings’ suggest Joe Rogan is killing people via his podcast when talking about Covid, implying he’s responsible for their deaths.
They add they SUPPORT free speech & the First Amendment — just not for Rogan to have *A* platform, calling his show “dangerous.” pic.twitter.com/dzONwcPhVh

CBS and the rest of the media (sponsored by Pfizer in many instances) are pumping out the exact same narrative regarding Rogan, while declaring that their own few thousand viewers are “more enlightened” than the millions that Rogan regularly pulls in, trouncing the ratings of even the most popular TV news outputs.

fascinating logic. I don’t see an audience size limit when I read the 1st Amendment.
Now we’re in the lawsuit zone.
These “media” pukes never seem to learn.

Translation: HOW DARE YOU HAVE HIGHER RATINGS THAN MOST OF OUR SHOWS BIGOT!
He’s an excellent interviewer. You should check him out. He’s not a commentator. So anyone saying this bs has never heard him. Before he had on Malone, he interviewed Gupta. I suppose he was killing people then for sure.
“You have a first amendment right, but only when we tell you that you do. If you agree with us, you have a right. If you don’t agree with us, you don’t. Any questions?”
Good thing he apologized or they would want him banned. You never apologize to Communists for calling them out.
I don’t watch or listen to See BS “news”. For the same reason that I don’t eat out of the toilet.
CBS yet another left wing bunch of LIARS.
They just can’t report the FACTS they have to LIE.
AND I haven’t listened to Joe Rogan .
You don’t have a “right” to appear on ANY platform in the first amendment. The government cannot silence you, but no one is required to amplify you, either.
But it’s surely wrong to say that Rogan is killing people. He’s merely lying to them and in doing so encouraging them to kill themselves. Quite a different thing.

These ASSHATS lied for 4 years about Russia, Russia, Russia, putting the ENTIRE country in turmoil, and they have the AUDACITY to call out ANYONE about truth REALLY!! These bastards are lying NOW about the science of these shots, masks ect. THEY KNOW the shots don’t work, they KNOW the masks don’t work!!
A new Rasmussen poll shows that HUGE numbers of Leftist Democrats want to see unvaccinated Americans stripped of their basic human rights:
59% of Democrats want unvaccinated Americans to be barricaded in their own homes… unable to leave for ANY reason other than emergencies.
58% of Democrats want the government to FINE Americans who do not get the COVID-19 vaccine.
48% of Democrats want the government to IMPRISON or fine Americans who question the effectiveness of the vaccines.
47% of Democrats want the government to track every movement of unvaccinated Americans.
45% of Democrats want the unvaccinated to be evicted from their homes and moved into prison camps until they get vaccinated.
29% of Democrats want to take KIDS away from unvaccinated parents.
Last week, the Salt Lake Tribune called for the military to imprison the unvaccinated in their own homes… ensuring they would “not be allowed, well, anywhere.” (And that’s in Utah… one of the most conservative states in America.)
Excerpted:
So, Joe, you still think it would be unworthy to interview Trump?
Never even think to give any sense that you feel even a little bad after they smear and bully you.
They get even more vile and nasty.
Treat them like the scum they are. That is all they know.
Stopped watching TV news a long time ago. Hard to believe how far it’s fallen. Pretty much just tune in the weather, at least they get that right once in a while.
Journalists repeatedly calling for censorship is something new in this country. Just one more example of how the left destroys everything it touches.
They want their pound of flesh but they have only gotten one ounce right about now.
You will be punished if you go against the Party.
He hardly can be called a 'conservative' but at least he hasn't self-censored his views on covid, wokeness, global warming, and other fascist trends in America. He also has guests from all political beliefs on his show.
The old MSM hates him because they are dinosaurs. His shows literally gets 10X or more the viewership of formats like CBS evening news gets in the key adult demographics - and among the young, its a complete disaster for old-style broadcast media.
