Joe Rogan slams CNN for ‘force-feeding me morons’ instead of delivering news

Podcaster Joe Rogan and comedian Tim Dillon criticized CNN for its biased personalities and lack of understanding of the podcast world.

In a recent interview with CNN, Dillon shared his experience and mentioned how the network views podcasters as powerful individuals, with the interviewer expressing surprise that he agreed to the interview despite potential backlash from Joe Rogan.

The 2024 presidential campaign highlighted the significant role podcasts played in the election of President Donald Trump.

Rogan expressed his disbelief at CNN’s perception of him, stating, “That’s so silly,” and later added, “They think we’re at war.”

Rogan dismissed the idea of being an enemy of CNN and instead expressed his hope that the network makes better editorial choices moving forward.

“I hope CNN corrects course and focuses on delivering real news without biased editorial comments,” Rogan emphasized. “I don’t want to be force-fed opinions from individuals like Don Lemon. When you’re force-feeding me morons, of course your ratings plummet.”

“Of course, and you guys lied about so many things and never corrected yourselves,” Rogan continued, referring to legacy media outlets.

Agreeing with Dillon’s assertion that CNN acts as an arm of the Democratic Party, Rogan remarked, “Whether they are forced to be, or whether they choose to be because they identify with being Democrat, and they want to skew things completely towards the left, I don’t know.” He added, “I want them to do well. If they turned it around and CNN became great, I’d watch it all the time.”
