One of the world's most popular podcasters has given Spotify a headache. Some critics and musicians claim that Joe Rogan is promoting COVID misinformation in his podcasts, which are exclusive to Spotify after a reported $100m deal in 2020. So how did Spotify - originally a music streaming service - become embroiled in a free speech debate? Also in the programme, Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Three returns as a traditional TV channel, six years after the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ decided it should be online only.
Guests: Elizabeth Dwoskin, Silicon Valley correspondent at the Washington Post; Jake Kanter media correspondent at The Times; Rosanna Pound-Woods, producer of The Catch Up on Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Three; Batya Ungar-Sargon, deputy opinion editor, Newsweek; and Marianna Spring, Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ disinformation reporter.
