Lennon
During the session for “Baby, You're a Rich Man”, John Lennon supposedly changed the line in the chorus to "Baby, you're a rich fag jew" (MacDonald, 2005). According to author Bob Spitz, this was either a joke at the expense of The Beatles’ gay Jewish manager Brian Epstein “particularly in regards to the group’s complex and bewildering financial picture”, or as an “offensive nonsense rhymes” against the band’s moptop clean image.(Womack, 2014; Spitz) Spitz writes that the session tapes also reveal Lennon improvising similarly "wicked" remarks about Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and the Rolling Stones’ Mick Jagger. Partly as a result of these disruptions, they required twelve takes before they achieved a satisfactory rhythm track.(Unterberger, 2006)

[ Brian Epstein’s article, Personal life section:]

Lennon delighted in mocking Epstein's sexuality; a popular rumor holds that during the recording of "Baby, You're a Rich Man", he sang altered choruses of "Baby, you're a rich fag Jew".(MacDonald, 2007; Norman, 2009)

Similar phrasing is on the Lennon article which starts the paragraph with:

Lennon delighted in mocking Epstein for his homosexuality and for the fact that he was Jewish (Harry (2000b)).
