Spotify
Old episodes are vanishing and Spotify hasn't said a word.
The Spotify podcaster apologized for using the slur after India.Arie posted the video to illustrate why she's pulling her music from the platform.
Daniel Ek confessed that achieving the streaming service's ambitions means having content "that many of us may not be proud to be associated with."
"Spotify should get rid of Joe Rogan's show not just because he spreads COVID disinformation but because he is a racist," she said.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
"Spotify's support of Joe Rogan's podcast has felt like a slap in the face," the creators of "Science Vs" wrote in an email to the streaming service's CEO.
Dwayne Johnson called Rogan’s video in response to his Spotify controversy “great stuff.”
The bandmates say they'll cut ties with the streaming platform: "Spreading disinformation during this global pandemic has deadly consequences.”
Nash said "the opinions publicized by Rogan are so dishonest and unsupported by solid facts that Spotify becomes an enabler in a way that costs people their lives.”
Although the podcaster later deleted the tweet, he made no reference to the error.
The controversial podcaster says he wants to "find a better point of view," but also defended his guests.
