I got the impression that the video was edited to be one sided. I would like to have heard what the other side was interjecting with.

You aren't biased against AJ or anything

Let us ignore that they have had American journalists, including a former army man to help report on the Iraq war.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Jazeera

The original Al Jazeera channel's willingness to broadcast dissenting views, including on call-in shows, created controversies in Persian Gulf States.

Al Jazeera introduced a level of freedom of speech on TV that was previously unheard of in many of these countries. Al Jazeera presented controversial views regarding the governments of many Persian Gulf states, including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar; it also presented controversial views about Syria's relationship with Lebanon, and the Egyptian judiciary. Critics accused Al Jazeera of sensationalism in order to increase its audience share. Al Jazeera's broadcasts have sometimes resulted in drastic action: For example, on 27 January 1999, Al Jazeera had critics of the Algerian government on during their live program El-Itidjah el-Mouakass (="The Opposite Direction"). The Algerian government cut the electricity supply to at least large parts of the capital Algiers (and allegedly to large parts of the country), to prevent the program from getting seen.[4][5][6] At that time, Al Jazeera was not yet generally known in the Western world, but where it was known, the opinion about it was often favourable[7] and Al Jazeera claimed to be the only politically independent television station in the Middle East.

What's your point?

(NEW YORK) — Former "Nightline" reporter Dave Marash has quit Al-Jazeera English, saying Thursday his exit was due in part to an anti-American bias at a network that is little seen in this country.

No worse than the anti-Muslim bias in outlets like FoxNews.

And interestingly enough:

[q=article]Marash said he felt that attitude more from British administrators than Arabs at the Qatar-based network.[/q]

Are you UR's d/l?

And interestingly enough:

Are we not talking about the network? If we are, I fail to see the relevence of your point.

Seems like it was edited? Are all of you people blind? It's fairly obvious it was.

How is like UR to point out that an other network can have their view biases and views on things based on their location? If anything, I'm insulting AJ by comparing them to FoxNews.

[DinoDoc]

So now you do believe that the network has an anti-American slant as Oerdim was saying? These swerves in your thinking are making me dizzy.

It's clearly edited in terms of continuity, but it's not clear how much it represents/differs from the 'full' unedited version.

It's like UR to point out what your percieve as bad behavior on one side to excuse bad bahavior by the side you favor. I don't really care if you like the network or not but at least acknowledge its shortcomings and don't try and sweep them away.

I haven't us lopping off journalists heads, or killing relief workers.

Should we actually READ what Oerdin said first?

I glad they are finally letting people with alternative points of view get air time.

You may wish to restate your objections based on actual fact rather than what you think was said.

When it is common for just about everyone (when have you seen an actual "objective" news channel why shouldn't it be used? We don't like in a utopia.

I think it is pretty clear there is an abundance of anti-Americanism in AJ.
