James Dolan kicks reporter out of concert: ‘Knicks were not playing’

Even if it’s not at a Knicks game, you’re never safe from James Dolan’s wrath.

Polly Mosendz, a reporter for Bloomberg Businessweek, was kicked out of the Paramount, a small theater in Huntington, where Dolan’s blues band, JD & the Straight Shot, was performing.
