Joe Rogan has slammed MSNBC for its “misleading” video purportedly supporting Kamala Harris ahead of the US presidential election in November.
The 57-year-old UFC commentator slammed the left-leaning media network after it “misleadingly” compiled footage of himself previously “praising” the US vice president on his podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” into a video shared on TikTok earlier this summer.
Rogan clarified that MSNBC edited and stitched together clips of him talking about Harris and former U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (R-Hawaii) from his show before the outlet removed the clip. Gabbard recently endorsed Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
“I’m not going to sue MSNBC, but this is what MSNBC did. They recorded a clip of me talking about Tulsi Gabbard and they edited it to make it look like I was saying wonderful things about Kamala Harris,” Rogan said on his podcast.
‘I was talking about Tulsi Gabbard and then I was talking about the media getting behind Kamala Harris, all this surge and all these people just deciding that she’s good, she could win and they put the two things together.’

The network incorrectly collected footage of Rogan praising Kamala Harris on his podcast
She continued: ‘I was talking about how Tulsi Gabbard was a congresswoman for eight years and how she served overseas on two deployments in medical units taking care of people who had died in war. As if that’s not something Kamala Harris does.
“So all you have to do is take something out of context for someone who’s never going to see it in the first place.”
Rogan then accused Democrats of not caring about the truth, adding: “They just want a narrative to reach enough people because most people are just surface readers.”
Rogan has not formally endorsed any presidential candidate ahead of the election, but previously praised Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent bid for the Oval Office.
RFK Jr. suspended his campaign last week and in the process endorsed Trump. Trump’s supporters include Hulk Hogan, Kid Rock, Amber Rose, and others.

Gabbard also criticized the Harris campaign and MSNBC for misleading American voters on X and suggested both parties violated a Federal Election Committee rule in a post earlier this month.
She tweeted: ‘MSNBC is again EXPOSED as a propaganda machine for the Democrat elite, and how they will blatantly attempt to deceive the American people.
‘In one part of the video, @joerogan was talking about Kamala; in another part, he was talking about me. MSNBC conflated it all to make it seem like everything being said was about Kamala and that he was supporting her. Of course, this is completely false.
‘It is also another violation of FEC law to fail to disclose that their advertising is a contribution to Kamala’s campaign.’
