Joe Rogan apologizes for discussing doctored tweet on Spotify podcast

Joe Rogan on Thursday night apologized after discussing a fake COVID-19-related tweet on his Spotify podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience.”

Rogan said part of the episode that referenced the tweet was deleted after he was informed the tweet was fake.

“The show was already out, so we initially decided to post a notice saying we got tricked, then later thought it best to just delete it from the episode,” Rogan tweeted on Twitter on Jan. 5. “My sincere apologies to everyone, especially the person who got hoaxed.”
