White House Recommends Spotify Do More to Censor Joe Rogan

The White House indicated Tuesday that Spotify’s attempts to address what they described as coronavirus “misinformation” on podcaster Joe Rogan’s interviews was not a strong enough response to the freedom of speech controversy.

Spotify announced a decision Sunday to include content advisory warnings on Rogan’s interviews about the coronavirus pandemic with sources dissenting from the government narrative about the virus.

“It’s a positive step but more can be done,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said during the daily briefing on Tuesday.

Spotify acted to address the situation after musicians Neil Young and Joni Mitchell asked the company to remove their music from their platform as part of a protest of Rogan’s interviews.

But Psaki called on technology and media platforms to do more to censor what she described as “misinformation” about the virus.

“That certainly includes Spotifly(sic)," she said, mispronouncing the tech platform’s name.

Joe Rogan, this is your Rush Limbaugh moment! Make a big ol’ honkin’ deal out of the WH urging folks to silence you just like Rush did with Dingy Dirty Harry Reid’s letter to get Clear Channel Communications to drop their contract with Rush.

Apparently, they are quite concerned about Drs. Malone and McCullough providing any information that refutes the company line.

I believe the WH is changing the name to Ministry of Truth. They are also planning to hire a person to oversee it. His name is Winston Smith.

Misinformation lol. You meant to say truth WH. Unfortunately for the left more people trust Joe Rogan than they trust mainstream bullcrap.

What gives you the mistaken impression the left is at all in favor of free speech?

Rogan walks that “ I’m woke, but a tough woke”. Maybe now he will go full patriot when the insane raging libtards come after him.

Fascism is alive and well

These people are communists.

Fascists put communists in concentration camps. Republicans hold the door open for them.
