ASSOCIATED PRESS Jack Dorsey, the CEO of Twitter, was a guest on March 12 on the podcast of Ben Greenfield, who promotes the debunked theory that vaccines cause autism. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey joined a podcast hosted by a prominent fitness personality who also happens to tout the disproven and dangerous conspiracy theory that vaccines cause autism in children.
