Podcast giant Joe Rogan went to bat for CNN's chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, who went viral following his appearance on 'The Joe Rogan Experience.'
Multiple exchanges from the 3-hour interview last week emerged on social media, including Rogan's grilling of Gupta over his network's coverage of his use of ivermectin, a drug that was prescribed by his doctor amid his recovery from the coronavirus but was characterized by CNN anchors as"horse dewormer," something Gupta admitted they should not have done.
CNN'S DR. SANJAY GUPTA ACCUSED OF ‘JOURNALISTIC MALPRACTICE’ FOR SPINNING DISASTROUS JOE ROGAN INTERVIEW "People on network TV don’t have anything remotely similar to the kind of freedom I enjoy doing the podcast. For him to dive into my world and have an open form conversation with no restrictions took real courage, and I appreciate it very much," Rogan added. Gupta penned an essay published on CNN's website recapping his entry into the"lion's den" with Rogan, although he glossed over the host's accusations that CNN"lied" about his ivermectin use.
"I guess a small part of me thought I might change Joe Rogan's mind about vaccines. After this last exchange, I realized it was probably futile. His mind was made up, and there would always be plenty of misinformation out there neatly packaged to support his convictions," Gupta wrote."Truth is though, I am still glad I did it. My three-hour-long conversation wasn't just with Rogan. If just a few of his listeners were convinced, it will have been well worth it.

Dr. Sanjay Gupta: Why Joe Rogan and I sat down and talked -- for more than 3 hoursIn today's highly segmented media world, most of the people who watch and listen to me every day on CNN have already received and accepted the message about the utility of vaccines, the importance of masks and how we can all work together to put an end to this pandemic. So I realized that if I was serious about trying to communicate public health, I needed to go to a less comfortable place. I needed to go into the lion's den and accept an invitation to sit down with Joe Rogan for more than three hours.
