"They can have Rogan or Young. Not both": Neil Young threatens to leave Spotify over vaccine misinformation
CBSN
Neil Young had a strong message for Spotify on Monday: "They can have Rogan or Young. Not both." The 76-year-old rocker apparently doesn't want to share a platform with Joe Rogan, whose podcast, "The Joe Rogan Experience" has an exclusive deal with Spotify.
Rogan has famously questioned COVID-19 vaccines on his show, and when he got COVID-19 last year, said he took ivermectin, a controversial drug.
In an open letter to his management and record label posted on his website, Young, who survived polio as a child, said he wanted to remove his music from Spotify because of the "false information about vaccines being spread — potentially causing death to those who believe the disinformation being spread by them." Polio has been eliminated in the United States due to widespread vaccination against it.
