Why Spotify chose Joe Rogan over Neil Young
b'Neil Young\'s music is being pulled from the streaming platform Spotify. That\'s after he told the platform to either remove his music, or take action on vaccine misinformation \\u2014 specifically from podcast host Joe Rogan. \\n\\nSpotify ultimately sided with Rogan, saying Wednesday it would begin removing Young\'s catalogue but that it hoped he would come back soon.\\n\\n"We want all the world\'s music and audio content to be available to Spotify users," the company said in a statement. "With that comes great responsibility in balancing both safety for listeners and freedom for creators." \\n\\nThe Joe Rogan Experience is the world\'s biggest podcast, famous for its long-format, wide-range interviews with eccentric and sometimes controversial guests. But its host has come under fire for his relentless questioning of widely shared scientific agreement about COVID-19. \\n\\nNicholas Quah, podcast critic for Vulture and New York Magazine, joins us to explain the rise of vaccine skepticism on Rogan\'s show \\u2014 and the reasons why Spotify may have taken this side.'
