Joe Rogan: A Conspiracist for the Trump Era

Source: The UnPopulist
by Matt Johnson

“Joe Rogan, a UFC commentator and comedian who hosts the most popular podcast in the United States and possibly the world, has developed a reputation as an anti-tribal and fiercely independent voice who is beholden to no political party or faction. In the eyes of his regular guest Jordan Peterson, Rogan is ‘the most powerful journalist who’s ever lived,’ and he has managed to gain such broad appeal because he ‘just asks questions.’ But the notion that Rogan is an honest broker of information who has an overriding commitment to the truth is absurd. In fact, he has only one consistent mission: attempting to debunk mainstream media narratives by entertaining conspiracy theories. He’s more of a populist than a non-partisan — and he’s definitely no truth-seeker.” (10/30/24)
