Comedian Stewart Lee has reportedly become the latest artist to withdraw his material from Spotify in protest at Covid misinformation being spread on the platform.
Musicians Neil Young and Joni Mitchell last week withdrew their work from the streaming giant after Spotify stood by high-profile podcast host Joe Rogan, whose show has given airtime to Covid vaccine sceptics.
The row had already escalated on Tuesday when White House press secretary Jen Psaki said “more can be done” by Spotify to tackle the spread of coronavirus misinformation.
