Spotify has penned a new multi-year partnership deal with controversial podcast host Joe Rogan, whose enormously popular show will soon also be available on competing platforms, including YouTube and Apple Podcasts.

Spotify says it’s axing 17% of its global workforce in the music streaming service’s third round of layoffs this year.

Music streaming service Spotify says it’s cutting 6% of its workforce, becoming yet another tech company resorting to layoffs as the economic outlook worsens.

Like Facebook and Twitter, Spotify is learning the limits of deflecting responsibility for what is said on its platform.

Spotify’s CEO says that while he condemned podcaster Joe Rogan’s use of racial slurs, he doesn't believe that cutting ties with the popular personality is the answer.

Joe Rogan’s mouth has put Spotify in a tough spot.

Spotify is pledging to combat the spread of COVID-19 misinformation as part of a damage-control campaign sparked by musician Neil Young, who called out the streaming service’s top podcaster for amplifying vaccine skepticism.

Spotify said Sunday that it will add content advisories before podcasts discussing the coronavirus.

Apple has recently eased some longstanding restrictions that helped make its App Store into a big moneymaker for the company.
