Joni Mitchell is removing her entire catalog from Spotify, days after Neil Young made the same decision. Like Young, Mitchell says she’s leaving the streaming platform due to its role in spreading misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines via Joe Rogan’s ultra-popular Spotify-exclusive podcast The Joe Rogan Experience. Mitchell announced the decision in a message on her website, where she also republished a recent open letter to Spotify from 270 doctors, scientists, professors, and healthcare professionals calling for Spotify to implement a more rigorous misinformation policy. The letter was issued after Rogan’s Dec. 31 episode featured Dr. Robert Malone, who has repeatedly spread false and harmful claims about the vaccines.
