Joe Rogan has addressed recent criticism that his podcast "The Joe Rogan Experience" has helped to spread COVID-19 misinformation.
A backlash from scientists and health professionals prompted Neil Young and Joni Mitchell to request that their music be taken off Spotify, which owns the podcast.
In a video posted to Instagram Sunday, Rogan said of Young and Mitchell: "I'm very sorry that they feel that way. I most certainly don't want that."
He added: "I want to thank Spotify for being so supportive during this time and I'm very sorry that this is happening to them and that they're taking so much heat from it."

Rogan groveled to those trying to take his freedom of speech away.
As we speak Webster’s is putting his photo next to the words ‘cuck’ and ‘eunuch’.
dear diary - saw a picture of Neil Young today. Why does he look like Gr*ndp* Joe's b*lls*c? Would you like to buy a vowel?
A backlash from scientists and health professionals...
I saw one list of "scientists and health professionals" that included a few LCSW (license clinical social workers). That's basically a late-20s/mid-30s girl with a master's degree in grievance studies.
paraphrased —
Joe is sorry they are idiots.
“Par for the course these days.”
You need to come down off your love of self toots.
People like you are a dime a dozen. Contrary to you own high opinion of your own self, there are people around here not sold on you.
While Joe Rogan deserves credit and praise for awakening perhaps millions of people to this covid horseshit, a resounding “fu#k you” to Neil Young and his ilk would have been much more appropriate.
It’s called GOTIS.
Sanders may be a Marxist lunatic, but a lot of his supporters have a strong "America first" streak in them.
Not an apology. Gives the appearance of taking the high road. Who cares what party he is, he is for freedom. It has become that simple. If he can move the left toward freedom we can make progress.

Rogan was basically saying that he didn’t give a rat’s hindquarters what those dried-up, irrelevant, old idiots think.
Once a liberal….
I don't do those guys that are pulling out.
This is unkind, but I'm actually starting to hope these musicNazis are visited by The Ghost Of ADE Future.
Actually, I just listened to his entire statement. It isn’t an apology. He actually makes statements and backs them up as to how masks and the vaccines don’t work. The MSM is thoroughly corrupt.
Spoken like someone who has a $100 million contract with Spotify. Money talks.
First, he did not apologize...listen to the complete statement. The press wants to make you think he apologized. Second, he has guests from all sides and he lets them have their say. He is first and foremost, a free speech advocate, which currently is under attack. I have never viewed him as a conservative and wonder why you do.
Read the whole thing. He took a knee.
He apologized for having the two Dr’s on to simply speak their minds. In future, he “will try harder” to BALANCE such sessions.
That is commie trash code for packing the discussion with others, so much so that nothing is presented as fact. This is the same “nuanced” demonstrations at school board meetings wherein if you object you are immediately labeled a racist by the mob and ignored thereafter.
From now on anything he tries to say about the WuhanFlu will have a disclaimer and direct everyone to a separate site that will have “correct info.”

That’s not a real apology, but hey, if the accept it, who am I to complain.
