Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is calling out Joe Rogan for “bullying” in a scathing social media rant on Sunday afternoon.
Rogan has been attempting to get Dr. Peter Hotez to debate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who’s known for his anti-vaccine stance. Rogan pledged $100,000 to the charity of Hotez’s choice if he agrees to the debate.
“Be serious Joe, that’s what you throw for your hunting buddies on a weekend,” Hotez responded. “A $50 million endowment (which You/Spotify/ RFK Jr can easily afford), not for me but so we can continue making low-cost patent-free vaccines for the world’s poor. Preceded by RFK Jr’s public apology.”
Cuban took to social media to weigh in.
“You arent trying to find the ground truth on vaccines. If you were you would bring on someone who focused on debating the issue. Like @thereal_truther . Trying to bully Dr Hotez is ridiculous. You have producers that will prepare you and you get to control the conversation. @RobertKennedyJr also has a staff ready to prepare him, and these topics are what he talks about in every speech. You both do this on a daily basis Dr Hotez works every day to try to find ways to help people,” he wrote.
Cuban added: “Joe , you and @elonmusk ‘s @twitter are the mainstream online media and your platforms have become everything supposedly wrong with MSM. You are driven by self interest. Just like the MSM always has been accused of. And you both have earned that right. You busted your asses to be great at what you do and earned all you have accomplished. But don’t lie to yourselves and all of us and tell us you are different. You aren’t.”
Way to talk in generalities Joe. Not saying there aren't a lot of fucked up things about pharma. That's why we created https://t.co/jYSNkP7amr. But to ignore that the same industry has saved who knows how many lives is bullshit and you know it.
It's also disrespectful to all… https://t.co/bUawoBgbH6— Mark Cuban (@mcuban) June 18, 2023
We now await a response from Rogan.
Perhaps the Dallas Mavericks owner will make an appearance on the podcast.
