In Ultimate Twist of Irony, Someone Uploads The Fat Jew’s Book to Twitter
The Fat Jew, meet Karma.
Karma, meet The Fat Jew.
In a classic taste-of-his-own-medicine scenario, a Twitter user has uploaded every page of the Josh “The Fat Jew” Ostrovsky’s new memoir, “Money Pizza Respect.” Ostrovsky famously came under fire this summer for “curating” his popular Instagram account with unattributed memes and jokes created by other comedians, all the while gaining a massive following that brought with it an explosion of sponsored deals, paid appearances, a line of wine and, most recently, a book deal.
As of this writing, Twitter had not yet shut down user Sealfan78 (@updog7) for violating Twitter’s Terms of Service, but they have stopped him from posting any more pictures.
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
