Dwayne Johnson, the actor and former wrestling star known as The Rock, has retracted what had seemed his unconditional support for Joe Rogan, amid continued fallout from the controversial podcaster’s use of racist language.
Rogan apologised after the singer-songwriter India Arie posted to social media a video montage of him saying the N-word about 20 times on his podcast. The video includes Rogan making a joke about the movie Planet of the Apes and Black neighbourhoods.
