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.

Women lie about everything. Men, you always need to record them. They will lie to police and ruin your life. They lie over litle crap like this and big whoppers. No qualms about it.

What she wrote the advertisers was straight out of some communist harassment handbook.
“SOME of you” (who?) Have drawn criticism (from who? ) for SEEMING to associate (??) with a person who has exhibited “problematic behavior” (wtf?).

IOW, we’re coming after you because you advertised at an event involving someone on our leftist target list and were going to ruin you and him and we don’t have to tell you why.

WaPo is the same as Soviet Pravda or China People’s Daily, the only difference being, they had adults in charge, while WaPo is run by woke, pansexual millenials.

He’s an idiot to give her an interview. She fabricated a story about him and sent it to one of his sponsors.

Don’t interview...sue.

She talks in the same manner that every HR “person” has ever sounded like. I think sociopaths have a certain cadence to their voice.

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

He did inform her first thing in the phone call. It might not be in the excerpt, but in the twitter video, she answered the phone and he said:

"Hey Emily, this is Dave Portnoy calling, I'm recording you right now, but is seems a bunch of people, it seems like you're sending, we're having this pizza fest happening on Saturday, and you're reaching out to our advertisers. And you're basically sending an email that says to the effect Dave is a misogynic racist, do you want to defend yourselves advertising at this event."

Then the phone call went on for 11 more minutes. But he did inform her he was recording her. It might not have mentally registered with her that the conversation was being recorded, as during the conversation she tried to deny sending the emails, then later in the conversation tried to deny that earlier in the conversation she denied sending the email. She was talking in circles.

The Look: Mildly bucktoothed and rather mischievous.
Prone to gloating too soon.
