There is supposedly a great deal of death to the infidels type speech on their talk shows where people call in to the show or where the audience comments.
    Well, it's to be expected. The arabs are like petulant children. They don't really know what they're saying...

      I always liked Al-Gazirah. They speak in nice, understandable arabic there.

        Zoid, your choice of news outlets must be pretty lame if watching Al-JZ is such a 'Road to Damascus' experience for you.

        Did you not realise that teh internet has a ton of alternative views to the pro-establishment western line?

          Well AG western seems to be pretty nice and left leaning. Good enough for europeans to swallow.

          Normal AG has also grown up and become better.

          I did see videos depicting AG reporters faking and staging news bits about Iraq in 2003.

            It isn't news. It is garbage.

            Fvck yea, seems more appropriate.

              I imagine the beheading vids they show from time to time must entertain someone otherwise they wouldn't keep showing them. So I can see why some people might think they are awesome.

                Yes I know that. But TV doesn't. And I prefer TV to the internet...
