AlJazira

AlJazira is a media organization headquartered in Doha, Qatar. It was launched in 1996 and quickly gained prominence as a major Arabic-language news channel. In 2006, AlJazira launched its English-language service, AlJazira English, further expanding its global reach and influence. The organization operates a network of television channels, websites, and other media platforms broadcasting in multiple languages.

AlJazira's reporting style has often been noted for its direct coverage of sensitive issues in the Arab world and beyond, distinguishing it from many state-controlled media outlets in the region. This approach has led to both praise for its journalistic independence and criticism from various governments and entities regarding its editorial content and perceived biases. The network has won numerous awards for its journalism.

The organization is funded by the Qatari government, though it maintains editorial independence. AlJazira's content covers a wide range of news, including politics, business, culture, and sports, with a particular focus on the Middle East and North Africa. It has also been a significant platform for interviews and commentary from a diverse array of public figures and analysts.
