He showed evidence of the reporter having anti-Trump bias. He also published messages and social media posts of one of the accusers in the article showing a similar bias.Portnoy interviewed former President Donald Trump at the White House in 2020 in what was widely viewed as a friendly interview between the then-president and the CEO of Barstool.Portnoy also published messages from the other accuser, casting doubt on her claims that her relationship with Portnoy left her in a deep depression. In the messages, she allegedly told Portnoy that she had bragged about her having sex with him.\u201cI\u2019m going to do whatever I can to make sure that they \u2013 you know, if you want call it revenge, whatever \u2013 that they pay as much as I have the ability to make them pay for what they did, which to me is knowingly falsely accusing me of rape,\u201d Portnoy said. \u201cThey went through my entire social life in eight and a half months and I was able to \u2026 discredit the two girls that they found in three days. Eight and a half months.\u201d\u201cSo none of it adds up, and they didn\u2019t include any of the stuff that basically casts serious doubt on why she\u2019s telling me these stories,\u201d he said.[embedded content]The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
