BIG MISTAKE! Joe Rogan Apologized and Now He'll Have Hell to Pay

Joe Rogan apologized for his Spotify show over the weekend, which was bad enough, but he managed to make things far worse in his Instagram statement.

Rogan’s in the spotlight because singer Neil Young — he of “Rockin’ in the Free World” fame — pulled his music from the streaming service because Rogan’s COVID-19 discussions were not deferential enough to the government. It’s that free speech guy or me, said Mr. Stick-It-to-the-Man, Anti-War, four-dead-in-oh-HI-oh to Spotify.

Spotify’s CEO couldn’t handle the heat and even though he let Young walk and sided with his 100-million-dollar man Rogan, he announced that from here on out, his company would place a scarlet letter on every “podcast episode that includes a discussion about COVID-19.” An advisory “will direct listeners to our dedicated COVID-19 Hub [to get] up-to-date information as shared by scientists, physicians, academics and public health authorities around the world.” These are, of course, some of the very people who have lied about the origins and funded the gain of function research to create the very virus that appears to have escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology. They’re some of the same people who said masks were bad but then they were good, that shooting up kids with experimental shots and adults with boosters was unethical but now that’s good too, and that the “vaccinated” were bulletproof to COVID-19 but now claim they never said that. In other words, information is ever-changing so if disclaimers mean nothing, why disclaim anything?

Rogan, who runs the juggernaut podcast, gave a great recitation of why the two most controversial guests on his program, Dr. Peter McCullough, an epidemiologist and cardiologist, and Dr. Robert Malone, who holds nine patents on mRNA technology, were perfectly suitable guests for his program. He said,

"I’m sorry you feel that way” is the classic non-apology. But people around here prefer to be hysterical and outraged and would rather lose so they can be mad about it, so it’s harped as if Rohan groveled at someone’s feet.

I get that he didn't actually apologize, but the media is absolutely reporting it that way. I watch the morning news to get weather & traffic before I leave for work, and they did a brief blurb report on this. They showed Rogan's video without Rogan's audio while the reporter said "Joe Rogan has apologized for spreading disinformation on his Spotify podcast". This is the sound bite being repeated on every (fake) news outlet in America.

This is just like Trump's Charlottesville remarks all over again. ROGAN SHOULD NOT HAVE SAID ANYTHING.

Long-winded.

People get McCullough and Malone through a dozen other channels. They are not exclusive to Rogan.

Why Rogan is so important in this is a non-sequitor, he’s almost irrelevant.
