What happened with the 'F the Jews' sign at Barstool Sports?
Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, a big news day with Joe Biden finally sitting down for an interview and Trump continuing to take on everyone. But we have got to begin with an update on what is going on with Dave Portnoy and an anti-Semitic incident that happened at a bar he owns in Philly over the weekend. Here's what we know. When you order bottle service at the bar, you get to also write on a sign for the whole bar to see. As you can see, some idiots put the phrase, forgive me, fuck the Jews on the sign. The viral went video on social media and Portnoy, who is Jewish, was irate, although I always feel like that's irrelevant.
I would go irate too, and I'm not Jewish, but it does become relevant to the story that the fact that he is Jewish, we'll get to it. So he launched an investigation and says that he fired the two employees who allowed that sign to go forward and said that he was sending the two customers responsible for the sign, volunteering to send them to the Nazi concentration camp Auschwitz so they could learn a thing or two about the terrible consequences of anti-Jewish propaganda. Sounds like a positive outcome, right? Portnoy wasn't trying to like ruin their lives. I don't even think he was mentioning the one guy's name. He just wanted, you know, a good outcome and he thought this would be a way to do it. And he was getting warned that there was no reforming somebody who would request that as their words on a sign. But he, you know, took a chance.
Well, one of the two customers, a man now identified as 21 year old Temple University student. Maybe Temple has suspended him. Mo Khan, K-H-A-N, says he was not responsible for the sign and merely videotaped the sign and then posted it to his own social media as a, quote, citizen journalist. He now has fought back with his own series of videos on social, claiming he is the victim here. Watch.
Dave Portnoy sensationalized it to his 9.2 million followers on Instagram and X, essentially turning it into a global news story. Although I had nothing to do with the sign coming out, nor do I know who did it, I know that the sign was provocative because it reminded people a lot of the unjust things that Israel is doing around the world, thus leading me to report on it. Dave Porno and his friends can choose to be triggered over the sentiments of that sign and even kick me out of the establishment forever. However, they have no right to destroy my life over free speech and ultimately something that was an edgy joke. Frankly, they're more worried about destroying and uprooting me than the thousands of people getting destroyed and uprooted in genocide.
That sign had no effects in terms of killing any Jews. However, Israel kills thousands of people on a daily basis. Dave Portnoy and the greater Jewish community are acting as if they are the victims when this whole time, I am the victim. Dave has built a reputation, a career, and a business solely focused on the anti-cancel culture. Here, he's hypocritically lynching me, absolutely canceling me in any way possible and ruining my life. Dave Portnoy owes me restitutions and an apology for everything that he has done and caused for me in these past few days. In an attempt to expose me, he exposed himself as almost a total fraud, going back on anything he stands for.
Okay, it's not cancel culture when he tries to do something nice for you. How did Dave Portnoy cancel you, Mr. Khan? He said, that was effed up. I will give you a free trip overseas so you can go to Auschwitz and learn a thing or two about the Holocaust. He's not your employer. You posted the video on your own, assuming the risk of blowback. He's not trying to cancel you. He was trying to help you. You're canceled yourself by posting your sign or at least your friend's sign without saying, letting you know this happened at this bar. You just posted it without comment on your reel. And your behavior in the aftermath has proven to us quite clearly that you believe the sentiment in that sign, in my opinion.
