CNN: The Most Dishonest Name In News Is Sinking, They Blame Joe Rogan

CNN pummeled for turning to Joe Rogan 'researcher' to explain why he's so popular: 'Painfully on-brand'
The ratings-challenged network relied on an outside source to figure out why Americans prefer Rogan
CNN is apparently so baffled by the popularity of Joe Rogan that it sought out an "expert" to help explain why the podcast giant has such a huge following.

In a video report released by CNN Business on Wednesday, a reporter began by accusing Rogan of using his platform on Spotify "to make false and inaccurate statements about COVID-19 and vaccines," adding that he "has also used raced and offensive language."

"Even with these controversies, Rogan remains wildly popular. So the question is- why?" the unnamed CNN Business reporter asked.
"I may or may not have laughed out loud at the fact CNN had to bring in a third party expert to explain ratings and consumer interests," Washington Examiner's Becket Adams tweeted.

"CNN requiring expert help to understand why anyone listens to the world’s most popular podcaster is painfully on-brand," political commentator Drew Holden quipped.

"Someone unironically researched 'Joe Rogan's appeal,' and someone at CNN greenlighted this segment. It's not possible to mock this any more than it mocks itself," Daily Wire writer Virginia Kruta tweeted.

"Hiring an ‘expert’ to explain why ppl listen to Joe Rogan… I f---ing swear to got not even @TheBabylonBee can parody CNN better," Habibi Power Hour co-host Mujahed Kobbe slammed the network.

"Joe Rogan is the new Rush for the media at large. ‘We hate him. How could anyone love him? We sent a team of reporters to investigate,’" radio host Scot Bertram mocked CNN.

Last week, CNN's left-wing media correspondent was similarly mocked for complaining that Americans trust Rogan more than his own network.

"Not all opinions are created equal," Stelter said. "You think about major newsrooms like CNN that have health departments and desks and operations that work hard on verifying information on Covid-19. And then you have talk show stars like Joe Rogan who just wing it, who make it up as they go along."

"And because figures like Rogan are trusted by people that don’t trust real newsrooms, we have a tension, a problem, that's much bigger than Spotify, much bigger than any single platform," he added.
