Spotify Technology SA employees are raising concerns about an episode from the company’s Joe Rogan podcast in which the popular host discussed conspiracy theories with right-wing rabble-rouser Alex Jones.
Some workers have taken to the Slack chat service to discuss “The Joe Rogan Experience” episode, which included Jones exaggerating the risks of giving children the polio vaccine and saying that masks don’t help stop the spread of coronavirus. Spotify has taken down content from Jones before for violating its policies about “hate content,” but the service declined to remove this podcast.
