My friend over at Blazingcatfur – with whom I shared a lovely meal during his recent trip to Israel – covers the inept reporting of the Toronto Star’s Denise Balkissoon.
Denise Balkissoon of the Toronto Star is a very poor reporter or she attended a Palestine House demo in an alternate universe
…
Ms. Denise Balkissoon, a crack reporter for the Toronto Star, covered the JDL protest at Palestine House today. She wrote this piece of Walter Duranty inspired twaddle – Jewish group protests Palestinian speaker.This was Ms. Balkissoon’s take away – “Each group accused the other of hate, shouting “go home.” JDL members hurled overt racist slurs, while Palestine House men threw pennies on the ground, calling the JDL “thieves.”
Ms. Balkissoon either attended a demonstration in an alternate universe or she is simply a hack. Nowhere in her “article” does she mention the calls for “another holocaust” or the calls of “We love jihad. We love killing you” which were caught on tape. Not a word about the fact that Palestine House is an Islamist Front organization subsidized to the tune of several million Canadian Tax dollars to spread hate.
If Ms. Balkissoon worked for a serious paper troubling questions regarding her integrity might be raised, but remember folks, she works for The Star.
Blazing has plenty more here, including footage of Balkissoon’s “hard-hitting” reporting.
