Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy has issued a public apology to Mary Kate Cornett, an Ole Miss student, after his platform amplified a false rumor that went viral. Cornett, who denies the allegation, has faced severe harassment and is now considering legal action.
Portnoy said, “Morally, we were wrong,” in a rare show of public accountability.
