Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

His podcast was already big before it was on Spotify, wasn't it? I haven't listened in half a decade, but I remember being sort of mad that he went to Spotify and removed the feed from where I was listening.
The over $200,000,000 that Spotify paid Rogan came from somewhere, and I'm sure cutting employees (and their salaries) was part of it.
He rode a tidal wave of corporate sponsorship and political back scratching to land that Spotify deal. Rogan subsists on an enormous reservoir of unearned media coverage. He repays his corporate bosses by floating the turds FOX and Disney won't touch.
I just ran a list of all the politial comentary guests to check their standing, and it seems pretty even between right, left and libertarian left, leaning towards libertarian. I haven't listened to him lately, but I never got the impression that he was much of a right winger from anything he has ever said on there while I was listening. Of course, I'm not interested in political interviews, so I would have avoided shows with purely political interviews... Everything he does seems to lean far left. He is a meathead and easily influenced by fad diets. But he also seems to like everyone and not sort by politics. That's just the impression I get.
You can only invite Elon Musk, Dave Smith, and JBP onto your show so many times before you tip your hand.
Hell, Tulsi Gabbard gets an invite every time she launches a new campaign.
he wanted more money, right wingers were untapped market for him, so he started grifting, of course with MR putin whispering in his ear.
I never heard anything about Joe having contact of any kind with putin... I just looked it up and there is no indication anywhere that he has ever had contact with putin. He did say some stuff that made Ukraine a bit mad, but it was mostly focused on keeping the US out of forign wars. That might have been short sighted in the case of the Ukrane war, but has nothing to do with russian influence...
