Al Jazeera English is very well done, I agree, except when the subject turns to Israel, when the bias just drips off the screen - at least in the shows I’ve watched, which hasn’t been a lot, I’ll admit.

I’ll never forget seeing a show that aired on the Arabic version of Al Jazeera, though - a birthday party for the Palestinian terrorist who sneaked into an Israeli community and murdered several members of an Israeli family in an absolutely horrible way, and was released in a prisoner swap. It was a truly loathsome show, and that wasn’t just right wing propaganda; they treated this mass murderer as a celebrity and a hero. Left a lasting bad impression on me.

Having said that, I do agree that AJ English is not like this; most of the time it’s very professional.

It’s pretty ugly here: #CurrentAlJazeeraShowPitches
