(Tamir Kalifa/Austin American-Statesman/AP)The music-streaming service Spotify pulled several episodes of “The Alex Jones Show” on Wednesday for violating its policy on hate content. “We take reports of hate content seriously and review any podcast episode or song that is flagged by our community,” the company said in a statement to The Washington Post. “Spotify can confirm it has removed specific episodes of ‘The Alex Jones Show’ podcast for violating our hate content policy.”Jones did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent to Infowars. YouTube took down four videos from the Infowars channel last week for violating its rules on graphic content and hate speech.
