Dishonest WaPo Reporter Caught Completely Off Guard During Recorded Call With Dave Portnoy
Daily Caller ^ | 9/20/23 | Robert McGreevy

Posted on 09/20/2023 3:25:01 PM PDT by jeannineinsd

When Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy discovered the Washington Post’s Emily Heil had contacted his advertisers and labeled him as a person with a “history of misogynistic comments,” he took matters into his own hands and called her.

Portnoy posted the 11-minute confrontation in its entirety on Twitter. Heil initially lies, saying she didn’t characterize Portnoy as a misogynistic racist, before being confronted with her own words.

“We have this Pizza-fest happening on Saturday, and you’re reaching out to our advertisers,” Portnoy said. “You’re basically sending an e-mail that says, to the effect, ‘Dave’s a misogynic racist. Do you want to defend yourselves advertising at this event?’ Right?” he asked Heil. Heil, seemingly taken aback, didn’t even realize it was Portnoy who had called her.

“I’m sorry. Who are you?” she asked.

“I’m the guy you’re writing the article about, Dave Portnoy,” he replied.

Heil initially denied the accusation, claiming “I haven’t said anything like that.”

But apparently Portnoy brought receipts. He read a portion of an e-mail Heil sent to one of Portnoy’s advertisers, which he also posted to his website.

My comment was tongue in cheek. There was a famous book published in 1969 by Phillip Roth called Portnoy's Complaint.

Dave Portnoy has a legitimate complaint with the lying beeotch.

“My comment was tongue in cheek. There was a famous book published in 1969 by Phillip Roth called Portnoy’s Complaint.”

Having read the book I got the reference/word play and your comment made me chuckle.

1- he’s pu$$ied out. “I wanted to talk to you,” she kept saying. He should’ve said, “Lets talk now.”

2- he should be suing the WaComPost for everything they’re worth and he should have told her as much.

Then he called her the equivalent of a female dog and told her that she should stick to cooking barefoot in the kitchen.

We need more Dave Portnoy’s.

She says she will talk to him 10 am on Thursday, but when does the article come out? 1 am Thursday? Festival is Saturday.

A hit piece needs to some lead time to drive away advertisers. On Friday she can run Portnoy's angry response. Sunday or Monday can be about the problematic white conservative bros who showed up at the festival in defense of Portnoy.

Portnoy can pronounce "tortious" correctly, which ought to send Heil talking to the Post's legal team, but he can't pronounce "misogynistic" to save his life. "Misogenic," he says twelve times. Referring to the production of Japanese soup.

You’re making me hungry. Though of course I prefer a good ramen.

**Guilty of what?? Being a horse faced, ugly hag**

People can’t help what their ancestors gave them physically. But women need to realize that bright lipstick frames the teeth that are already quite visible from a distance.

Her mind is whats a sad case.

Reporters used to say they didn't want to be the story, to make the story.

So why is she calling his advertisers? Was she trying to get them to back out of sponsoring his event so she could write about THAT story?

In many states you must inform the person first before recording a phone conversation.
