Joe Rogan has accused MSNBC of “deceptively” editing video footage to make it look like they were praising Vice President Kamala Harris. “They don't care about the truth,” Rogan said of the news outlet. “They just want to get a story out there to enough people, because most people are only capable of a superficial reading.”
“MSNBC took footage of me talking about Tulsi Gabbard and edited it to make it look like I was saying wonderful things about Kamala Harris,” Rogan told neuroscientist Andrew Huberman on his show Tuesday. The Joe Rogan Experience.

Huberman, a tenured professor at Stanford University's School of Medicine, appeared surprised and responded, “Wait a minute, what?”
“Yeah,” Logan said. “They didn't do it like an AI. They just fudged and edited what I said. They took it completely out of context.”
“First of all, I was talking about Tulsi Gabbard,” Rogan said of the first clip, adding that in the second clip he's talking about “the media supporting Kamala Harris, this surge and all the people who are assuming that she's good and that she can win.”
“And they [clips] “They made it seem like I was praising Kamala Harris and saying a lot of things about her that weren't true,” Logan said.
The podcaster went on to explain that “Tulsi Gabbard was talking about her eight years as a congresswoman and her two deployments overseas in the medical corps, dealing with people blown away by war.”
“That's not what Kamala Harris did, that's what Tulsi Gabbard did,” Rogan said. “I just [Gabbard]And then they released it as a video of me praising Kamala Harris.”
Rogan added that MSNBC did this because “they don't care about the truth, they just want to get the story to enough people because most people only read surface level information.”
former Fear factor The presenter said that most people “read the headline,” “decide what it is” and “then close their laptop.”
Rogan also denied rumors that he plans to sue MSNBC over the matter.
“This got so public that my father-in-law contacted me and said he was happy that I was suing MSNBC,” he said, adding that he told him, “I'm not going to sue MSNBC.”
Gabbard, who endorsed former President Donald Trump on Monday, posted the footage to X earlier this month, saying, “MSNBC was exposed today for yet another string of lies.”
“They edited various comments by Joe Rogan into a video to make it look like he was praising Kamala Harris,” Gabbard said.

MSNBC is the propaganda arm of the Democratic elite, and once again it has been exposed how they are trying to mislead the American people.

“This does not reflect the truth of Joe Rogan's statements at all,” the former congressman continued. “This is yet another example of MSNBC colluding with Democratic elites and the Kamala Harris campaign to spread lies.”
Gabbard also said MSNBC was “attempting to use a platform that has absolutely nothing to do with journalism, but is purely a propaganda platform” and was abusing its status as a news organization to “mislead the American people” into getting Harris elected.
MSNBC has since removed the video from its platform and issued a correction, but as Rogan said, the damage was already done, as the story had already spread and most people would only have a superficial reading and would likely miss the correction.
