Chebucto Heights Elementary School and Refugee Students

interviewees: One of the interviewees, who asked to be referred to in the article by her nickname "Missy," alleged that refugee students used a chain to choke her daughter, who is in Grade 3. "She said one boy yelled 'Muslims rule the world' while choking her daughter," reads the original article with the headline "Parents worried over school kids' brutality at Chebucto Heights Elementary School." A sign for the Halifax Chronicle Herald is seen as members of the newsroom union picket outside the newspaper office after walking off the job in Halifax on Jan. 23, 2016, according to Huffington Post Canada. The paper, which has been experiencing a newsroom strike since January, was bombarded with online condemnation from readers and other journalists. The Chronicle Herald published the story on Saturday about students at Chebucto Heights Elementary School. A humiliating, xenophobic excuse for journalism, citing anonymous sources, written by anon scab, at striking paper https://t.co/M9GQ54Mw01— Andrea Woo 鄔瑞楓 April 10, 2016 The story was deleted from the paper website over the weekend. I was deeply offended to see the school represented so inaccurately. But the article, which had no byline, caught the attention of anti-Muslim groups. "Reaction to the story was all over the map, from thoughtful to downright scary," the Herald stated on the page that held the original story. "Appallingly, anti-Muslim groups with words like 'crusade' and 'jihad' in their names started sharing the article." I hope @chronicleherald is proud of providing the big players in the Islamophobe industry w/ convenient lies Alheli Picazo April 10, 2016 Elwin LeRoux , superintendent of the Halifax Regional School Board, blasted the article on Monday for its "harmful" tone, according to Metro Halifax.
