Dr. Drew Leaving YouTube and Joining Rumble After Vaccine Video Was Censored

Dr. Drew Pinsky has announced that he is leaving YouTube and joining Rumble after one of his videos on vaccines was censored.

In addition to deleting the popular video, Pinsky was suspended and unable to upload videos for a week over his vaccine discussion.

“Despite my vocal support of vaccines and science, YouTube deleted my #2 most-viewed show, put a strike on my channel & locked it for a week… again,” Pinsky tweeted. “Thankfully [Rumble] supports free speech.”

When #BigTech silences doctors who dare to ask controversial questions, those questions don’t vanish – they simply retreat deeper into echo chamber bubbles, where real misinformation festers. I will never stop asking questions and seeking truth. https://t.co/PdbiPIFLFr

Pinsky added that “when #BigTech silences doctors who dare to ask controversial questions, those questions don’t vanish – they simply retreat deeper into echo chamber bubbles, where real misinformation festers. I will never stop asking questions and seeking truth.”

The doctor also went on Rumble to discuss the censorship.

“Despite his vocal support of vaccines and science, this week YouTube deleted Dr. Drew’s #2 most-viewed show, put another strike on his channel & locked it for a week. Should ‘Big Tech’ have the power to censor debates between doctors… and how can social platform moderators correctly identify “medical misinformation” unless they are doctors themselves?” the video’s caption read.

Pinsky had 58,000 subscribers on YouTube, but now has over 113,000 subscribers on Rumble.
