The fucking food writer for a newspaper. A stupid pizza party.
This has unfortunately driven me nuts due to the sheer pettiness. It just tells me that these regressives are absolutely relentless, high-school-aged cunts.

One of the sponsors alerted Portnoy of the outlet’s inquiry, reading, to the effect, ‘Dave’s a misogynic racist. Do you want to defend yourselves advertising at this event?’”
Portnoy posted a screenshot of the email on the Barstool blog, showing the exchange between Emily Heil, the paper’s national food writer, and a redacted sponsor: [image]

“I’m sorry. Who are you?” she asks, unbeknownst Portnoy was aware of her article plans.
“I’m Dave. The guy you are writing about,” he responded.
Portnoy questioned why she did not ask him for comment but went to his sponsors instead, to which the “journalist” insisted she had yet to come up with “specific questions” for him.
Heil denied that she called Portnoy “misogynic” and “problematic” in her email to the sponsor. Portnoy then read her the email to prove otherwise.
“Well, that email was the most pointed because I was trying to get a response,” responded a dishonest Heil.

Portnoy and Heil eventually agreed to speak at length at 10 a.m. on Thursday. However, Heil canceled those plans late Wednesday night, “proposing 5 p.m. instead.”
“I said 10 a.m. or nothing. They refused,” Portnoy commented on X.
