Prince Harry and Meghan ask Spotify to make changes | royals

entertainment">Harry and Meghan signed a multi-million dollar deal with Spotify in late 2020 to create podcasts for the company that “help build community through shared experiences, stories and values.” The couple is “determined” to “continue” their work together, the statement reads, but asks the platform to make changes.

entertainment">Harry and Meghan are said to have been in touch with the platform as early as April last year to express their “concern about the all-too-real impact of disinformation about Covid-19 on the platform” and “continue to express their concerns to Spotify.”

entertainment">Last week, hundreds of doctors and scientists signed an open letter calling on Spotify to take a specific episode of The Joe Rogan Experience offline. In this much-listened podcast by Joe Rogan, untruths about the corona virus are regularly passed by. Canadian singer Neil Young also criticized the podcast and had his music removed from the platform. Singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell, among others, followed suit.
