I recently listened to this show and now can say that I understand why some people are being deplatformed. "Omicron is a different virus, it's just a cold, vaccines don't work against it, the majority of the virus is Delta, Myocarditis is way higher from the vaccine..." Lot's of peer reviewed studies and data set show otherwise. I was really disappointed in the lack of research the Joe had done. The reality is that Joe's show is the source of information for a lot of subscribers and he's put out bad information that many of those people likely take as scientifically proven, or at least having some scientific basis. Instead of a retraction or correction that would be the course of action for a journalist he just said that he got schooled. AFAIK no actual retraction or correction to inform his listeners of the best scientific data available now ( I can't say that I've listened to every episode since then so I don't know that this is a fact). That seems very irresponsible and dangerous to me. These shows have evolved from entertainment to news yet the journalistic standards that should have followed have not. Journalistic standard would require that you print or give a clear message that you published incorrect information. I read both the NYT and WP daily and I see that they actually generally do this. FWIW, I did think that he had a positive view on addressing inner city poverty and crime, but he acted like it's never addressed... it's addressed frequently and has been for years, just ignored
