then neil young weighed in.licetter on monday, he said spottifyas the responsibilities of milt gating misinformation on its platform. they can have rogan or young, not both. then on wednesy, he called spotify the home of life threatening covid misinformation and his music started coming off the platform that day. here's more from the hollywood reporter. >> he's an obviously prominent figure who has been outspoken about this before. spottify thus far has been pretty mum on the whole situation. neil young is certainly not the first person to have raised concerns about misinformation, particularly regarding joe rogan's podcast but given neil young's platform and his decision to pull his music, that certainly is sending a message and he's likely hoping that others will follow suit. >> while joe rogan has not commented on that, in the past he said he's not amendment vax. but they say they want all contt to be available to use users. we have detailed content policies in place, it says. michelle is a music journalist a

now since then, this has gone far beyond neil young.ut her statement and most recently we're hearing from nils lofgren for bruce springsteen's estreet band. he said we encourage all musicians, artists and music lovers everywhere to stand with us all and cut ties with spotify. of course, lofgren was also part of a band very closely associated with neil young. and also prince harry and meghan markle. they have a deal with spotify to host and produce a number of podcasts for the platform. here's what a spokesperson for their foundation said. our co-founders began expressing concerns for our partners at spotify about the all too real consequences of covid-19 misinformation on its platform. we look to spotify to meet this moment and are committed to continuing our work together as it does. so the spokesperson there also said this has been a conversation they've had with spotify starting in progress of last year. this all follows an open letter to spotify written earlier this month by about 250 doctors, nurses and scientists, very concerned a

neil young himself has said this. -- has requested this. >> ♪ i'm getting old ♪ mark: neil young in hiser days. he himself made the request to be removed from spotify. he said he objects his songs playing on the same platform that offers a podcast by a noted covid vaccine skeptic, joe rogan. >> he is a rock legend, and he is taking a stand against misinformation about coronavirus vaccines. on his website, neil young wrote that streaming platform spotify has become the home of life-threatening covid misinformation, lies being sold money. the controversy began after the american musician read an open letter from 270 medical professionals calling for spotify to establish a misinformation policy, mainly because of its number one podcast, "the joe rogan experience." joe rogan signed a contract with spotify in 2020 and has been repeatedly accused of promoting conspiracy theorists. he interviewed a virologist who has also been accused of promoting false information about vaccines. twitter has locked the dr.'s account, but spotify has not touched the episode. that's when earlier this week, youn

why is the boycott now, and why was neil young the one to kick this off? battle between neil young and joe rogan he is probably going to win the battle. young was taking a principaled stance. i think that any time we're asking a company or a platform to remove content or to sensor content, that should be attacken really seriously. and approached really, really carefully. but this this particular instance joe rogan has a long history of having conspiracy theories on science denial and is presenting folks with information as experts, and he is doing it with the exclusive financial backing of spotify. so i think three years into a pandemic where we're still stuck because of vaccine hesitancy, the american public is fed up, frustrated, and neil young is an advocate for that. >>> i think you to realize the long tale of this whole situation. right now joe rogan is a $100 million man with his deal with spotiex fy. and i saw when this whole thing fist broke, people were making fun of neil young saying it wasn't his hay day a long time ago, but neil young was bigge

neil young is obviously one of them.c removed from this. i find it interesting that you have a number of people who generally identify with the phreul left who have gone from being free speech advocates to being the speech police. have there always been cranks, people who are wrong and all kind of views in america. it is not normal for us to have an entire political ideology moving towards the idea that speech is somewhat violence or speech is unsafe. this is a country that values the concept of speech. we'll sort it outline in the public square. young doesn't value that unique american thing, the idea that we can all speak and we will sort it out. i find that to be the most interesting thing about this whole episode. >> scott, can you speak a little more about that? we had a story out of tennessee, kentucky. >> tennessee. >> they are ban pulling this graphic novel about the holocaust. this idea of protesting or boycotting something does not seem to be necessarily one sided if you're going to lump them together. >> i am

neil young causes a lot more discourse on the issue. so far you think of other instances that happened whether a couple weeks ago we broke the news about a bunch of doctors signing a letter essentially asking for spotify to take more action against any misinformation about covid whether it's from, you know, running from just joe rogan or otherwise but they didn't really do much. before then they hadn't done much. if more and more artists are to come forward it definitely put them in the spot where they have to actually say something and address a very much growing question. >> considering the popularity of joe rogan i think it is highly unlikely this will happen but we'll see. oliver, you may disagree. joe rogan is an explicitly anti-vaccine, he has advocate -- for vaccine in people who are higher risk. he said -- isn't explicitly anti-vaccine and has advocated for people at higher risk but has said younger people don't need it. listen to this. >> if you are 21 years old and you say should i get vaccinated? i go no. are you healthy? are

he gave spotify an ultimatum saying they can have joe rogan or neil young but not both. >> trevor: neilalls because, yeah, he's popular but he's going up against the guy who's so popular he's the reason kids now have horse dewormer in their lunch boxes. at the same time, spotify should think about this, think about who's going to leave a greater legacy. in 30 years, what are people going to be slow dancing to at their weddings, a neil young ballad or clips of joe rogan being wrong about the vaccine. >> i don't think it's true there's an increased risk of myocarditis. >> trevor: it kind of works. to me, the outcome is clear. between neil young and spotify the winner of this beefzuz is guys who love to talk about how everything sounds better on vinyl. a perfect excuse for them to tell you why are you listening to spaft the bitrate ruins the range. next up, taylor swift! dropping albums almost every week but according to the guy from the british ban that was an oasis, she's not putting in enough work! let's see the beef! >> trevor: >> looks like bad blood between taylor swift and damon alb

if streaming giant spotify continues to feel the backlash from as decision to remove neil young from the platform with another music legend joanie mitchell, also removing her music and solidarity. the singers are protesting upon cast her sent by joe rogan on the platform, which they say it spreads mis information about the corona barnes. earlier this month, hundreds of scientists and medical professionals find a letter urging spotify it to remove the popular pod cast, which they have not done. and anthony howard is here to talk more about this. this story just keeps rumbling on, doesn't that? and the longer goes, it gets more interesting to look at why joe rogan is there, and to music legends are gone. joe rogan was paid a $100000000.00 to pick up his giant audience and lift them and plump them down and spotify, that's what they were hoping to achieve. and that's exactly what he did. the problem is that he has extreme views. he's told his large audience not to get vaccinated and talked about his use of information, either make them and how it has helped him, not approved by the drug

is there a possibility that more artists follow neil young and joni mitchell? probably not. the biggest money's been as on that platform and move that platform or leave that platform as well? yes, i think i think that could happen. i'm, as you mentioned, the joni mitchell and neil young are the sort of cutting edge of, of modern pop music. but i think this whole issue does shine a light on, on a bigger topic, which is, who takes responsibility for the content on these platforms as platforms like spotify, like facebook, like instagram become bigger and more influential. who takes responsibility for what's put up on them. do we stole out? would we keep up the sort of free for all or should, or these platforms between more like a traditional broadcast, like say, deutsch avella where the content that's put up on our channel is take the broadcast or takes responsibility for it. i think that issue is sort of the core of this scandal, this discussion, and that issue definitely isn't going away. our coach responded to scott roxborough there. thank you, scott. israel's head of state

i don't think| it is going to work, because neil young made a statement that basically said it's either joe rogan is there moneymaker. it's bad for this but want to have to deal with this, because already apple, if you open apple music, they said you can find neil young's music here. so apple is on top until they make some sort of mistake people try to cancel them. this e - isode people try to cancel them. this episode underlines the challenge of policing these platforms as even podcast now become potential minefields of misinformation. mark lobel, bbc news. the united states has made a direct appeal to north korea to join talks about its nuclear and missile programs. it comes after pyongyang confirmed that it tested a hwasong—i2 nuclear capable intermediate range ballistic missile on sunday. it was the seventh missile test so far this month and one of its most powerful in years. these pictures, released by the state news agency, show parts of the korean peninsula and surrounding areas seen from space as the rocket reached an altitude of 2,000km. north korea analyst ankit panda explaine

the big bet on netflix neil young's bluff and spending spree for peacock.asey, welcome let's start with bill and this purchase of more than 3 million netflix shares. >> good to be hire. >> no word on whether he would -- do you think he'll try to shake things up >> well, you hasn't mounted an activist challenge in a long time, and when you read what he said about this pu purchase, he seems excited about netflix over the long term those shares were down about 50% from their high and i think he saw this as a good time to make a move >> and so what do you think? i want to drill down a little harder when he makes a move, often it is not just a buy and hold kind of move. what do you sense he might be up to, if you sense anything. >> well, look, there are definitely reasons for netflix to be concerned, and we'll talk about one of those, peacock, in a minute when you look at the streaming landscape, there was a vision netflix may have had a couple years ago when they thought that they were going to be the ones essentially buying up all of the content out there and

i think neil young probably read this news coverage, read about this issue and decided to take a stande only leverage he had was his music. now spotify choosing rogan over young and it's a really interesting dividing line, ana, about how much moderation platforms should do or should not do. young might want other artists to follow him and today sirius xm they said they are going to have an exclusive special neil young channel on sirius xm. so you see the marketplace in some ways working this out. he's gone from spotify. but he's on sirius xm in a special way. maybe that's a good free market solution. but then this issue about rogan and misinformation still stands. >> right. so has spotify actually addressed that misinformation that's happening on joe rogan's program? >> they have always been very -- they've always avoided talking about this, to be honest. when we send requests for comments, when we ask for interviews, spotify has remained mostly mum. the position they essentially take is, we have lots of different kinds of music and podcasts for lots of different kinds of fan groups. t

all of us are talking about this because of a decision that neil young made.ld happen. it seemed like it could have been, you know, just neil young maken an idealistic decision for himself, but more and more people have come out. but as we've already said, it would take the likes of a taylor swift or adele to make a more swift action than just putting out, you know, their content policy. and whether or not that will happen we'll see. i'm not sure yet. there's a lot of other young artists i'm sure may want to come out and talk, but it's not so easy for someone with the same level of clout or pull or success demanding their music be taken off. whether or not the younger developing artists want to do the same, i'm not sure. i'm sure there are some, but whether they could is another question. >> i sort of see three outcomes, andrew. spotify feels so much pressure, they end up parting ways with joe rogan. joe row ban acquiesces more than last night and says i am going to change my ways. in doing that, he could lose hardcore supporters. or three, this news moves on

and then artists like neil young and joni mitchell got wind of it and said this is not ok, this is a until you remove our music until you removejoe rogan or you remove this episode. and specify came back and said, we removed over 20,000 pieces of content that we deem unacceptable and dangerous this was just not one of them. so that really upset people and more artists started jumping on. people and more artists started jumping on— jumping on. sadly, 'ust to say we are jumping on. sadly, 'ust to say we out * jumping on. sadly, 'ust to say we are out ofh jumping on. sadly, 'ust to say we are out of time h jumping on. sadly, just to say we are out of time on - jumping on. sadly, just to say we are out of time on this - jumping on. sadly, just to say we are out of time on this butj we are out of time on this but what you think it tells about the way that platforms will have to manage these threats of situations in the future? just briefly. it situations in the future? just briefl . , ., situations in the future? just briefl. , ,,, briefly. it is a slippery slepe- _ briefly. it is a slipp

you have apple music pointing out you can find neil young music right here if you wish to.ll pan out in terms of the business side of things. that's the thing. spotify is very much in thejoe rogan business. they spent $100 million to lockdown exclusive rights to his podcast. whether spotify is a music company or the world's biggest record store, if you will, it really feels like that is more of a loss leader for their business. but where the artists show their strength is in speaking up their strength is in speaking up and causing the stock price to dive, which is actually an impact on their bottom line. so was all very interesting, the economics of this.— was all very interesting, the economics of this. 0k, good to talk to you- _ economics of this. 0k, good to talk to you. we _ economics of this. 0k, good to talk to you. we are _ economics of this. 0k, good to talk to you. we are enjoying i economics of this. 0k, good to talk to you. we are enjoying a l talk to you. we are enjoying a very well—behaved cat behind you as well. another star on the bbc. thank you so much. good

>> geraldo: i love joni mitchell and neil young, if they had been taylor swift and drake threateninghink the joy behar did leap at neil young, and in anticipation of an avalanche of big names that did not materialize. so i think that spotify from a corporate point of view is in the clear, i do appreciate they are finally putting a consumer warning, the opinions expressed by this or not blah, blah, blah. >> dana: that's fine, what about the point that a lot of people are complaining about the things that use to get you canceled, but now actually turns out to be proof. >> jeanine: and that really started with a lot of the left deciding what was misinformation and what we should not here, and that was their excuse for canceling people and taking information out of newspapers or on social media, but what i think it's even more interesting is the fact that the joey behars of the world, neil young and joni mitchell, they are all concerned about misinformation, but for four years this country was torn apart with russia misinformation i did not hear any come out and say it's terrible what th
