Offers a first look at the all-Arab news network and its

controversial role in the Arab world. Al-Jazeera, the independent,

all-Arab television news network based in Qatar, emerged as

ambassador to the Arab world in the events following September 11,

2001. Arabic for "the island," Al-Jazeera has "scooped" the western

media conglomerates many times. With its exclusive access to Osama

Bin Laden and members of the Taliban, its reputation was burnished

quickly through its exposure on CNN. During the 2003 war in Iraq,

Al-Jazeera seemed to be everywhere, reporting dramatic stories and

images, even as it strived to maintain its independence as an

international free press news network. Al-Jazeera sheds light on

the background of the network: how it operates, the programs it

broadcasts, its effects on Arab viewers, the reactions of the West

and Arab states, the implications for the future of news

broadcasting in the Middle East, and its struggle for a free press

and public opinion in the Arab world.

书籍介绍

Offers a first look at the all-Arab news network and its controversial role in the Arab world. Al-Jazeera, the independent, all-Arab television news network based in Qatar, has emerged as ambassador to the Arab world in the events following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, and the war waged in Afghanistan. More than a channel reporting the news as it happens, Al-Jazeera (Arabic for "the peninsula") has access to the Arab world and is "scooping" the western media conglomerates. It has emerged as an international relations actor on the world stage with its exclusive access to Osama bin Laden and members of the Taliban. Its reputation has been burnishing quickly through its daily exposure on CNN in the U.S., even as it strives to maintain its independence as an international free press news network. Al-Jazeera sheds light on the background of the Al-Jazeera network, how it started, how it operates, the kinds of programs it broadcasts, its effects on Arab viewers, the reactions of the West and Arab states, its implications for the future of news broadcasting in the Middle East, and its struggle for a free press and public opinion in the Arab world.
