Rogan promised to feature more differing opinions on his show after facing widespread criticism for promoting Covid-19 misinformation on his podcast.
on Instagram, Rogan said “if I pissed you off, I’m sorry,” and added that it was a “strange responsibility” to have so many viewers and listeners.
Rogan, who said he agrees with Spotify’s decision to add a Covid-19 content warning to his show, said he will do his best to “balance things out” going forward. Attributing the current controversy to his episodes featuring vaccine skeptics Dr. Robert Malone and Dr. Peter McCullough—who made several unsubstantiated claims about the pandemic and vaccines—Rogan noted that he wanted to talk to them as they had opinions that “differ from the mainstream narrative.”
Despite this Rogan claimed his intent was not be “controversial” or have his show only feature opinions that are just contrary to the popular narrative and said he was open to having “more experts with differing opinions right after I have the controversial ones.” Rogan thanked Spotify for its support and said he was a huge fan of Neil Young, who along with Joni Mitchell asked the streaming service to remove his music due to Covid-19 misinformation on Rogan’s podcast.“I will do my best to try to balance out these more controversial viewpoints with other people’s perspectives so we can maybe find a better point of view,” Rogan said. “I don’t want to just show the contrary opinion to what the narrative is.
