Bumped - Our MSM at Work: Racist Jews Protest Against Palestine House - Denise Balkissoon Toronto Star
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.
...
Video of Ms. Balkissoon asking the tough questions of Meir Weinstein - "someone said "where's your camel" Whoa!
Pay close attention to Denise Balkissoon here kids, this is a real reporter at work. At about the 2:38 mark Ms. Balkissoon gets to the heart of the story and demands Meir Weinstein's reaction to her penetrating question "I heard someone say "Where's your camel"! Whoa! Now that's reportage folks, forget that trivial stuff about calling Jews Monkeys or that they "need another Holocaust". Yes Sir Denise knows racism when she hears it!
Ps. Denise, throwing "coins" is meant to insult Jews as "money grubbers". Twit.
...
Ms. Balkissoon hard at work chasing down the story
...
So what does Denise Balkissoon think about calling Jews Monkeys, watching Jews have coins tossed at them, or about calls for another holocaust?
Why Denise thinks it's petty. H/T Flea
New: More From Ace Reporter Denise Balkissoon!
Update: Michael Coren tells the Denise Balkissoon Storey
"This is how our new reporting hero describes herself: “My areas of expertise include social trends, travel, human rights and diversity, immigration and ethnicity, food and style. Expect smart journalism, culture-savvy content and thoughtful editing done on deadline.”
Thoughtful editing indeed. And how’s this for being ”culture-savvy” – at the Palestine House demonstration she asked the yarmulke-wearing leader of a Jewish organisation why he won’t be protesting on a Saturday!"
....
Denise on spelling mistakes.
Denise is the daughter of Bas Balkisoon, now a MPP in Dalton's govermnent.

Why does that make sense;)
With looks like that, she could cover my story anytime.
Now now young man that'll be enough of your overt sexist remarks on this quality blog.
Can I at least say 'hubba hubba'?
Ok but once per comment only, I have standards to maintain ya know.
OK, that's understandable. We have a reputation as fine, upstanding citizens to maintain, after all.
How Balkisoon prioritizes today's concerns.

Thanks Flea screenshotted and will send it along through appropriate channels.
Linked: "Your tax dollars funding immigrant thugs" @Sharpe Stick. Smokin' video! Well done, Fiery Feline!
BTW, these thugs can be really dangerous. Good thing you had 'five feet of bodyguard' there to look after you!
Thanks Don, yes I was in a safe zone with 5 feet;)
In fairness, she refers to a "storey" of petty racism. Could be the ground floor of Palestine House she means.
It's not like the Toronto Star would hire a full time journalist who cannot spell?
Maybe that's the new PC Spellcheck in action.
Is she wearing a strait-jacket?
Yes that is standard attire for Star Reporters.
BCF - Toronto Star is a rag that I would not use to line my garbage bin and I have not hesitated to tell that to all who try to give this paper away for free at No Frills and other supermarkets in and around Toronto. This paper caters to the south Asian community and muslims of Toronto and that's that.
Even when the paper is free for the taking at supermarkets on many a weekend, the pile remains a mountain of stinking waste as nobody wants to take home this rubbish even though it is free.
In the kingdom of rags, Toronto Star is the dirtiest of the dirt-ridden and the same goes for most people writing within it.
How pathetic is it that a Toronto Star reporter doesn't know the difference between storey and story?
My impression of Denise Balkissoon..
(In a valley girl accent) "That's like SOOO racist..."
Must be nice being the daughter of an elected official... Cross-Leftist nepotism... No talent, or brainwaves, needed
Well given she works for the Star it could be argued that she earned her position solely on her merits;)
"Is she wearing a strait-jacket?"
"Yes that is standard attire for Star Reporters."
Lol! It does look like she is trying to set herself free though.
After reading your blog, she may try harder. I would 'love' to help her.
She probably studied journalism under Haroon Siddiqui

Almost a full day later and Ms. Balkissoon has yet to update her Twitter. Just. Clueless.
These people are so pleased to believe the news - reality itself - is limited to what little they see fit to report, they cannot see the Clue-Bat coming.
I can't believe no one has said it yet, so 'sup to me I suppose.
What race is Islam?
I guess when you're a Star Reporter, the quals must be to have had at least one gold star in kindergarten.
Somebody needs to get Susan Cole on the line.
If Ann Coulter couldn't speak at a publicly-funded institution, perhaps she won't object if we cancel the Abd Al-Bari Atwan speech?
Seeing as how you can't tolerate hate speech in publicly-funded institutions.
Unfortunately Patrick that depends entirely on what the left chooses to define as hate speech.
By the way I'm begining to suspect Balkissoon is spelled with only one s.
Denise is the daughter of Bas Balkisoon, now a MPP in Dalton's govermnent.
Canada . The land of nepotism.
At 11:15 Edward commented "Hey BCF, really funny that you're attacking Balkissoon for her spelling when you don't even know how to spell story."
Then he actually decided to read the post.
You don't get off that easy Eddy.
It is far from over.
Good to hear that Meir, reporting like Balkissoons deserves all the attention it can get.
If you're going to complain about other people's spelling mistakes, please remember that I am the Vicious (angry, nasty) Babushka, not the viscous (slow, sticky) Babushka.
"Viscious" Babushka that's how it's spelled in the sidebar. Granted the type may be a bit small. Actually the spelling issue is just fun, she was whining after being called on it yet seemed to have no problem giggling about someone eles's spelling mistake. Hypocrisy and all...
Deportation sounds like the right thing to do. Unfortunately, it's not going to happen.
What are you going to do Meir? Send some of your boys over to teach her a lesson?
Wow Dred that was killer, what next Nya Nya Nya?
I do volunteer work at an animal care facility and The Toronto Star is actually used as a favourite to line pigeon cages. It's the right size. A fitting tribute.
I agree it is of little use for anything else.
The Byron Sonne story in Toronto Life was actually pretty good.
