— CBS News (@CBSNews) November 9, 2025 “I’ve seen in my own experience, just being Barstool, the difference between how much hate I get,” Portnoy explained in an interview with Tony Dokoupil, to air next Sunday. “I never got — I mean, occasionally you get, ‘Hey k*ke’ or ‘Jew’ or whatever. It’s every day now. Like, there’s a definitive shift in what’s going on. So, yes, now I, for me, being a Jewish person, you got to step up. You’re kind of someone people look up to in the Jewish community, you have to be like, ‘Alright, this is not normal ‘ha ha’ with the guys,’ people are coming in with real hate.” On Sunday, Portnoy attended the New England Patriots-Tampa Bay Buccaneers game with Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who founded the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism in 2019. Portnoy has long been outspoken against antisemitic behavior. Earlier this year, he took swift action against those responsible for a “F*ck the Jews” sign that appeared at a Barstool-branded bar in Philadelphia.
