The founder of Barstool Sports, Dave Portnoy, said on Monday that he revoked the offer of “a teaching moment” to one of the men who allegedly involved on the anti -Semitic sign in one of the company’s bars.
The personality of the sports media explained in a video the new turn that took place. A video of the sign, which said “F — The Jews”, appeared on social networks during the weekend. Portnoy had said that he would send the culprits to Auschwitz, the infamous concentration camp directed by the Nazis in Poland during World War II, to learn about the Holocaust against the Jews.

Portnoy said he spoke with two of the men involved in the incident and that both “were responsible” for their actions during the weekend. Portnoy said that a publication of one of the men involved, whom he identified as Mo Kahn, published a long statement on his Instagram saying that it had nothing to do with the incident.
The statement said that the alleged guilty “documented what happened as a citizen journalist” and added that since the video went viral “he faced serious threats to my security, which has been overwhelming.”
Then, the statement added: “I aborted hate in all its forms. They raised me to respect and be friendly to all people. I hope that honest and open dialogue can get out of this incident so that we can address the deepest realities of the world in which we live. With what I have learned (and I will continue learning), I hope to help create a safer space for everyone.”
Portnoy said he called Khan after seeing the statement and that Khan told him that he was pressured to admit something he said he had no real participation.
“I’m like, ‘hey, A-Hole, you’re going up to Instagram,” he said. “I didn’t put your name in the name. Other people understood it because you uploaded it to Instagram. We laughed you well.

Portnoy said Khan was not going to explain the other supposed anti -Semitic publication of social networks and added that “maybe my parents can explain that.” The moment left Portnoy perplexed.
“I am how to try to make this a moment of teaching, launch a line of life to a child, and he says: ‘Well, they already suspended me from the temple’ because you obtained a sign ‘F — the Jews in a bar and published it on social networks,'” said Portnoy. “What do you not get about that? Maybe if you learn a life lesson. Maybe if people look at you to Poland and it seems that you have changed, this gets behind you.”
Portnoy made it clear that he will not send man after all.
“F —, I’m sorry, man. Did I try to throw a lifeguard and do some of this, and now you are a ‘citizen journalist’? You have not had anything to do with that? Friend, you have uploaded a video with a sign ‘F — The Jews’, everyone laughed.”
