But for me, this particular hosting job, it should disqualify him.” The Hasan Minhaj Controversy, Explained The controversy quickly garnered headlines when The New Yorker published an article in its September 2023 issue detailing Minhaj's stand-up fabrications. One of the main examples cited in the article by journalist Clare Malone was that Minhaj fabricated a story about being in a relationship with a White girl in high school and experiencing racism from that girl's parents. Minhaj was never in a romantic relationship with her, however.
