The Fat Jew has finally addressed THOSE ‘joke stealing’ rumours
Josh Ostrovosky is the man behind The Fat Jewish, an Instagram account that is known for its hilariously clever memes and jokes.
With 5.7m followers, The Fat Jewish is one of the most popular comedy accounts out there, with posts regrammed by everyone from Cara Delevingne to Kim Kardashian.
However, the account we all know and love so much has been coming under some serious fire lately with many people claiming that The Fat Jew robbed their jokes.
The Instagram personality recently released his own wine titled 'White Girl Rosé' and also signed a deal with Comedy Central for his own television show.
Once people heard about the comedy deal, they began emerging from the woodwork to claim his jokes as their own, saying he had been plagiarising on a daily basis.T
Now, Josh has apologised for not mentioning the sites where he first got the jokes, saying he will give full credit to everyone he gets material from.
"I should have been providing attribution for all posts. It's always been important to me. The Internet is a vast ocean of stuff, and sometimes it's hard to find the original source of something," he wrote.
"I now realise that if I couldn't find a source for something, I probably shouldn't have posted it in the first place."
Unfortunately his apology came too late for Comedy Central, who have already binned his TV deal.
If you're looking for more hilarity, The Fat Jew also manages an account for his adorable dog Toast. @Toastmeetsworld follows the life of this cute King Charles dog who has a tongue that's a teeny bit long for his mouth.
Adorbs.
