Russians in Israel
2008-06-07 16:40:00 This is a fascinating documentary about the Russian community in Israel. It’s produced by Al Jazeera, but don’t let that stop you. I found it interesting and informative. We explore how their presence is raising the issue of what it is to be Jewish. Russians in Israel I Russians in Israel II

Al Jazeera, the Marash analysis
2008-04-05 09:20:00 So Dave Marash admits he quit Al Jazeera English after being bumped out of the anchor chair and on to the road. Not exactly how he first explained it. Still, we all have our amour propre, what is interesting in the CJR piece is his analysis of the shifting politics of Qatar (my links in the copy below): I think that the world changed about nine, ten months ago. And I think the single event in that change was the visit to the gulf by Vice President Cheney, where he went to line up the allied ducks in a row behind the possibility of action against Iran.And instead of getting acquiescence, the United States got defiance, and instead ducks in a row the ducks basically went off on their own and the first sort of major breakthrough on that was the Mecca agreement, which defied the American foreign policy by letting Hamas into the tent of the governance of the Palestinian territories.This enraged the State Department and was one crystal clear sign that the Mideast region was now off campus...

Al Jazeera English: management shake-up
2008-03-06 18:10:00 I try not to pass on every rumour I hear, but on at least two separate occasions recently strong hints have been dropped to me that suggest a management shake up is coming soon at Al Jazeera English. This is code for someone replacing CEO Nigel Parsons.Parsons has survived much longer than I would have predicted - given the delays launching the channel - but now that it has been running for a while it needs to move on, and Parsons might well feel the same.If there’s a problem with AJE for me, it’s that it doesn’t have an editorial voice, and it doesn’t get talked about (except when David Frost forgot to ask Benazir Bhutto if OBL really was dead). Ultimately, that editorial voice needs to emanate from the Middle East, rather than from the mineral depths of a glass of Chablis.Someone Middle Eastern, with a serious editorial background and who understands Washington might be a good choice. Who might that be?

Al Jazeera multata per aver insultato il Kuwait
2008-01-23 15:34:00 Al Jazeera, la rete di news con base in Qatar, è stata condannata da una corte del Kuwait al pagamento di una multa di 20.000 dinari (circa 50 mila euro). In una trasmissione del 2002, la rete si sarebbe resa colpevole di aver offeso gli abitanti del Kuwait sostenendo che il paese e la sua gente erano stati responsabili dell’invasione da parte dell’Iraq nel 1990. La sede locale fu immediatamente chiusa e riaprì nel 2005 solo dopo il pagamento di una prima multa di 5.000 dinari (circa 12 mila euro). Insoddisfatti di questa cifra, alcuni giovani avvocati hanno deciso di citare di nuovo in giudizio Al Jazeera, colpevole di aver permesso bugie e insulti nei confronti della loro popolazione. La cifra da loro rochiesta è molto più alta, e i 20 mila dinari sarebbero, secondo la corte, una specie di anticipo. Al Jazeera ha promesso di appellarsi, quindi spetterà alla corte di appello e alla cassazione il giudizio finale. Via Variety (Fon...

What’s gone wrong at Al Jazeera English?

Saudi Arabia at AJE’s Arabic sister channel:What’s gone wrong at Al Jazeera English?Al Jazeera English, a one billion dollar project financed by the Emir of Qatar and based in the small Arabian Peninsular, promised a fresh perspective on world news.

2007-12-22 16:10:00 From the Friends of Al Jazeera blog: Well it looks like my husband and I (and our children) will be leaving Doha sooner than planned.Al Jazeera International (or Al Jazeera English as we were forced to call it after objections from the Arabic news channel) was launched 13 months ago.Since then two things have happened:First, the channel has built itself a reputation as an authoritative news source on world issues...The second thing that has happened is that the people who have been responsible for this phenomenal innovation in the world of broadcasting have been treated like shit.Yes, you heard right - like shit!In the beginning, they were encouraged, induced, seduced, implored, begged to come out to Doha to make this dream a possibility; they were welcomed with open arms.That was then - this is now.Now, they are being treated with disrespect, ingratitude, disdain, even downright contempt. They are lied to, ignored, cheated, abused, ridiculed.This is all done, of course, to “persu...

Believe me; it would make you laugh because the report was so damn absurd! :-) I strongly urge MalaysiaKini and their readers or subscribers to debunk our Information Minister’s silly response to Al Jazeera’s story as soon as possible.

Al Jazeera back in Saudi?
2007-10-08 18:14:00 Interesting post suggesting that Al Jazeera may be back in Saudi Arabia.The Jeddah summit between Qatari Emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani and Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz resulted in a deal, according to an article in Kuwaiti newspaper al-Jarida:Saudi Arabia would return its ambassador to Qatar. There has been no Saudi envoy in Doha since he was recalled in 2002. Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz would attend the Gulf Cooperation Council in Qatar in December. Abdullah had boycotted the meeting of regional leaders when it was last hosted in Doha in 2002. Qatar would see to it that al-Jazeera broadcasts would no longer “undermine†or “campaign†against Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia would in turn permit al-Jazeera to establish a bureau in Riyadh. Also included in the Qatari entourage, and reportedly present at the meeting of the two leaders, was al-Jazeera chairman Sheikh Hamad bin Thamir al-Thani. According to al-Jarida, the chairman said further changes to al-Jazeer...
Google And Al Jazeera Are Sitting In A Tree...
2007-10-08 00:23:00 It looks like Google has partnered with the most unbiased objective news organization on planet Earth after CNN, MSNBC, Fox News and certain communist propaganda.Well, at least you can't say Google is run by Zionists.(TechCrunch) Al Jazeera signed a commercial agreement with Google last week to share advertising revenue on their YouTube channel. The channel originally launched in April 2007.This comes even as U.S. cable operators continue to shun the 24 hour news service - only Toledo, Ohio based Buckeye CableSystem and the municipal cable suppler in Burlington, Vermont offer the channel to viewers.You can check out the new channel over here, although it seems to be less "Jews and Americans are evil" than their Arabic station as well as the BBC.Personal Thoughts: Highlighting bias in the open (and yes, Al Jazeera, is very biased) will help to counter it in the long run as people can see for themselves why no one takes Al Jazeera's "objective reports" seriously.Not to mention it mi...

Al Jazeera “Embeds” With Americans
2007-10-02 02:53:00 October 2, 2007. Al Jazeera English hangs out with American soldiers and at least one contractor (PMC?) at the KOP in the Korengal Valley of Kunar (50K from the Pakistani border) before moving to Outpost Vegas. What’s the message of this report? I presume it’s much more subtle than their Arabic fare. Despite the subtlety the report is very dramatic; the screams of “Medic!” come about half-way in. At the very least it humanizes the soldiers. But yeah, I have to go to Al Jazeera, Canadian or British TV to get regular TV reports on Afghanistan. That’s sad. At the moment CNN is reporting the serious news: The Britney Spears child custody scandal. This reminds me of a certain photo:
