Fundraiser for Temple student feuding with Dave Portnoy over antisemitic sign to be investigated by host site

GiveSendGo co-founder Jacob Wells told Fox News Digital that his company will be investigating a campaign on his site involving a Temple student in a feud with Barstool founder Dave Portnoy after an incident involving an antisemitic sign.

A fundraising campaign on the crowd-sourcing site GiveSendGo has raised over $15,000 for a Temple University student intending to wage a legal battle amid his feud with Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy. 

The student, Mo Khan, was thrust into national controversy after Portnoy accused Khan of posting a video to his Instagram story showing a waitress inside the Barstool Sansom Street bar holding up a sign that read "F--- the Jews." 

Portnoy initially offered to send the student on a trip to Auschwitz to learn about the Holocaust in response to his alleged role in the incident, but Khan declined. Instead, the 21-year-old is raising money for legal defense on GiveSendGo.

However, a video that Khan posted on X advertising the campaign received a community note after Portnoy disputed the student's account of what happened. 

GiveSendGo co-founder Jacob Wells has told Fox News Digital the company will be "looking into" the validity of the campaign.

"We want to make sure campaigns are as truthful as possible so we take reports of disputes seriously, we have our verification team that can take a look, and we'd be happy to take a look at this as well," Wells said, admitting he did not previously know of Portnoy's dispute and the community note on Khan's post. 

"It's not our responsibility or job necessarily to fact-find around every single campaign unto the nth degree, so there's a balance there, but we'll commit to doing our verification
