MSNBC lawsuit: Is Joe Rogan justified in his criticism, or is he overreacting?

UFC commentator and podcaster Joe Rogan is known for his kind heart and jolly nature, but earlier this month, something happened that made him furious. The reason was MSNBC’s gross negligence or deliberate act when they posted an edited clip from one of ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ episodes, #2182, on their platform, where he was praising Tulsi Gabbard. However, MSNBC’s edited video made it seem as if Rogan was praising Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

This led to viral rumors when self-proclaimed independent reporter Officer Lew tweeted, ‘BREAKING🚨: Joe Rogan sues MSNBC for $30 million,’ claiming that Rogan was suing MSNBC. In a recent episode of his podcast, Rogan, joined by American neurologist Andrew Huberman, cleared up all doubts regarding the supposed lawsuit. He revealed, “MSNBC did this recently, and this has become so popular that my stepdad contacted me to say he’s happy I’m suing MSNBC. I’m like, ‘I’m not suing MSNBC.”

Joe Rogan’s guest was left speechless by MSNBC’s actions and further questioned whether the video was AI-edited. Rogan clarified, “But they didn’t do it like AI; they just deceptively edited the things that I was saying, took it completely out of context.” Following this incident, many others sided with the podcaster and criticized MSNBC for their underhanded tactics. Tulsi Gabbard also weighed in, expressing her dissatisfaction with MSNBC’s manipulation of Rogan’s comments during an election season. She labeled the act as a “propaganda machine for the Democratic elite” aimed at deceiving the American people.”

Moreover, this is not the first time Joe Rogan has clashed with big media houses. In the past, Rogan criticized the media for gaslighting the public and concealing current U.S. President Joe Biden’s mental state.

Rogan criticizes media for hiding the truth about Joe Biden

81-year-old Joe Biden has been targeted by his opponents in recent years, not for his work or actions but for his mental state. Many videos highlight instances where he appears to act oddly or mistakenly names the Ukrainian president as Vladimir Putin instead of Volodymyr Zelenskyy during speeches. This has raised concerns among Americans about whether a mentally unstable president can effectively represent and lead the country. While Biden’s allies have dismissed these concerns, the issue became clearer when the Democrats recently withdrew Biden’s name from the candidate list for the upcoming U.S. presidential election and moved forward with Kamala Harris.

This caught the attention of Joe Rogan, who criticized the media in his podcast episode. He referred to California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s defense of Biden in a recent interview, saying, “There’s enough gaslighting out there now where you can say wild sh-t, absolutely wild sh-t, and nobody ‘on the left’ wants to address it. Newsom forgets what he’s talking about. Everyone’s so terrified of Trump being president that they’re like, ‘Blah blah blah, I don’t hear anything! I don’t see anything!’ They can’t say anything; it’s nuts.”
