Israel does not heart Al J

"Tensions soar between Israeli UN delegation, Al-Jazeera," Haaretz.

The Arab network's chief UN correspondent, Khaled Dawoud, has accused the Israeli delegation of discriminatory policies and harassment. The Israeli diplomats, for their part, have accused Dawoud of disruptive behavior and of exploiting press conferences and events with Israeli officials as a podium to bash Israel.
As'ad AbuKhalil finds Khaled a "fine journalist." While I haven't personally talked to the guy, I hear he presses pretty hard with his questions (that's the diplomatic version, right?), so much so that the French Foreign Minister once replied by insulting Dawoud's eyebrows.
