Barstool Sports President Dave Portnoy said in an interview with "CBS Sunday Morning" that he's experiencing daily antisemitism — a shift, he said, from the occasional hateful comments that he used to get.
"It's every day now. Like, there's a definitive shift in what's going on," Portnoy told Tony Dokoupil in an interview that will air next Sunday.
On Friday, Portnoy was recording a "One Bite" pizza review in Mississippi when someone yelled an antisemitic comment at him. His interview with Dokoupil was taped before the incident, but their conversation touched on a recent rise in hateful comments.
Portnoy said he feels that it's important for him to speak out. "For me, being a Jewish person, like, you got to step up," he said. "You're kind of someone people look up to in the Jewish community. You have to be, like, 'All right, this is not normal ha-ha with the guys. People are coming up with real hate.'"

Ignorant???
My comment "Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s sending his own hecklers out there to drum up interest." is spot on if you cared to educate yourself.
Dave Portnoy settled with The National Labor Relations Board in 2019 after threatening to fire employees who sought advice to form a union. As part of that settlement, it was disclosed that the Twitter account originally encouraging employees to unionize was owned by Barstool, his company, and was created to out labor organizers.
So yeah, this weasel has already shown he'd use planted opposition to further his goals.
“they cared about stirring up hate.”
and cash
Blaming American Jews for Israeli blunders with respect to Gaza is like blaming quality blacks for the actions of bottom-of-the-barrel blacks.
Followers of Nick Fuentes.
now see how stupid you are??..commenting on a story you know nothing about. This story was from when A.O.C was first elected and she was running her mouth and threatening NY business owners about union organizing laws. Portnoy and ALL the other Barstool employees then went on to taunt and troll her and she fell for it. Her little bird brain went ballistic...it was actially quite funny. Do a little research next time, ok?
I blame, in part, Netanyahu and those who think like him. Soulless liars who tell us not to beleive our lying eyes - the atrocities he/they comitted in Gaza never happened. Despite Americans witnessing and paying for all of it, it wasn’t real and our scummy media would not dare touch any of it, and allowed no opposition voices whatsoever.
Some here on FR want all Gazans dead, and their homeland a “parking lot.” They say so all the time. A certain demo of FReepers are actually pro genocide/ethnic cleansing. We’ve all seen the posts. Literal evil.
According to neocon piranhas like Levin and Shapiro, we’re not allowed to talk about any of this - or you deserve ruin. It’s verboten for Christians to be outraged about what Christians always have - and always should - be outraged about... humanitarian disasters. Here on FR, when someone posts pics of Gaza completely and utterly smashed to bits they get answered with pics of 1945 Dresden - supposedly as absolution.
Just tonight Levin was running his face calling people on OUR side (ie Tucker et al) “Nazis” and “Fascists.” He abused the terms exactly like the Antifa scabs. Friday night everyone was “clan members” according to Levin. He’s complegely off the rails.
Their types just got done destroying the Heritage Foundation, which BTW, got not a single mention from the malpracticing frauds @ Fox News. Now they’re going after people like Megyn Kelly, after they failed to crush Carlson... for holding an interview.
Portnoy was simply trying to do one of his pizza reviews, which I love and sunscribe to, when some d-bag felt the need to shout REAL antisemitic trash his way. That sucks. Seriously.
Most American Jews and even Israeli Jews are blameless, but they will, as always, wrongfully, get the backlash for the crimes and lies of their elite scum. We’ve been here before, when the st00pids come start coming out.
It’s a complex topic, so I must stop, but we need to be able to DISCUSS it.
btw, that ‘weasel” raised over 40 million dollars to keep small businesses open during Trump’s and the government forced shut downs during covid...sent the money directly to them, no red tape. Hes raised millions of dollars to help “rescue animals” in need of homes. He’s PERSONALLY matched millions of dollars that his company raised for the families of fallen police officers and first responders. Again, do some research..
Could be...
Levin is an idiot on some subjects, but Fuentes did say Hitler is a cool dude and laughed about Jews being burned in the Holocaust.
You good with Bannon and Tucker calling Christians who support Israel Christian Zionists and Israel Firsters?
So... he gave away money that he didn't give to his employees after sabotaging any attempt they'd make to unionize.
There are people right here on FR who don't feel at all insulted when they, proudly, call themselves Christian Zionists. You may consider it an insult, but they certainly don't.
And there certainly are, literal Israel-firsters right here on FR. Some have their entire profile page dedicated to Israel - even in Hebrew - and post mainly about Israel.
You're here a long time - you're not aware of it?
Yeah, I'm the stupid one.
He's lucky he didn't go to prison for that one.
go adjust the rabbit ears on your television set...you know nothing about dgital media companies. Commenting on stories you know zero about. Strange...
Blunders? I take it that's the new term for intentional Collective Punishment.
...like blaming innocent men, women, and children, both Muslim AND Christian in Gaza for the actions of Hamas.
There was a man in recent history with a toothbrush mustache who thought the same way.
Rabbit ears on a television set? Digital media companies? Really? Ad Hominem, Appeal to Ridicule, False Analogies? You're on a roll. I'm sure you can add a half dozen other ones.
The man has shown he's used controlled opposition before and now you point and splutter when someone states they wouldn't be surprised if he was doing it again.
As for stories I know nothing about; I know he shut down the Twitter account - the one you pretend didn't exist. He wouldn't have to take it down if it was a parody account for trolling AOC. He wouldn't have to take it down if it wasn't part of actual threats against employees who HE said, HE'd fire on the spot.
You keep pretending it was Dave vs AOC and conveniently ignore the NLRB. Nice Red Herring.
You keep pretending it was just a trolling joke.
Dude, you know nothing about Barstool Sports..i can tell. Portnoys employees worship the ground he walks on. I think you got a “Jew” hang up...thats what i think.
here ya go...educate yourself..heres Portnoy and his employees laughing about the whole thing.
Yeah, this employee worships the ground Dave walks on.

These ones do as well.

Projection. Got it. Keep going. One down, five more to go. I told you could falsely argue another half dozen fallacies.
I don't have "Jew hangup" as you call it. I just know YOU should come back with someone more credible than Dave Portnoy, the one who created a fake Twitter account to pretend to be a union organizer.
