Well, I’m not sure whom he is talking about. But I guess he means the American media/admin.

Well, I would say, yes and no.

No, they don’t lack knowledge and resources, they always had representatives in this part of the world, yet, yes don’t give fair perspective of the network. I believe they learned and witnessed the power and danger that Aljazeera has on their version of the stories and the way it is represented to Arabs (as well West), therefore, they decided to paint it black, and try all their best to compete with Aljazeera; starting with Al Arabiya, and end with Al Hurra.

Had Aljazeera not been threat to their story, they would not have invented millions to start al Hurra, and they would not have thought to bomb Aljazeera. Although they claim and advocate for freedom of expression, but that freedom is the one that match their’s only. Don’t we all remember Bush words: “If you are not with us, you are against us”, period.

Therefore, I’m very confident that they are knowledgeable enough, but they are far from being fair. Fairness does not match their agenda!

Al Jazeera themselves lack the knowledge and resources to give a fair perspective of the network…
Sensationalism is part and parcel of news media including Al Jazeera..

False. Aljazeera with its ten years experience is now a role model, not only in the region, but worldwide.

The staff is some of the best, they started Aljazeera with a team who all came from BBC. All of them are knowledgeable and very well known and respected. Not a single journalist was ever criticized for lack of knowledge or resources. In fact, Aljazeera was and still is the main resource for fair perspective. It’s enough to watch a program like the “opposite direction”, or “open platform” or any other show and watch the vast and different opinions.

The Aljazeera effect teaches the media worldwide how and what they should do to be fair and gives the audience the choice of all spectrum colors. Unlike CNN, Fox, etc…

Unlike Al-Arabiya, which is part of the Saudi media network. You just don’t miss to notice that their perspective is nothing more than the Saudi agenda, with all the pro-American analysis and reports which adds nothing to the elite audience but to present what the White House has for us.

It’s enough that Aljazeera has opened a windows for voices of the street. Maybe not covering all the stories that should be covered, but still has done more than any other news channel ever did, at least for Arab media.
