Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports, confronted a local ABC reporter after an interview concerning an antisemitic sign found at his bar in Philadelphia. The sign read 'F*ck the Jews,' which Portnoy, who is Jewish, vehemently condemned. He expressed frustration with what he perceived as a media 'bait and switch,' accusing the reporter of suggesting that Barstool was responsible for the sign. Portnoy claimed to have fired people over the incident and expressed deep anger toward the media's portrayal of the situation.
I forgot how much I hate fucking journalists.
They give me the reporter's name, and then they do a bait and switch, and a new reporter shows up.
She shifts, and then, she does what a media scumbag does, he said.
My immediate reaction is to condemn this. Iâm Jewish, Iâm not taking this lightly.
