Well, it clearly states: " The Al Jazeera English live stream is no longer available in the U.S.
You can now watch more of the in-depth reporting and great content you love on the new Al Jazeera America television channel". So I guess they're trying to get US folks to watch their news on a TV channel instead of the web.

It's still better than most of the news sources you can watch within North America. I'm sure there are better stations out there other than Al Jazeera, but when you look at the most commonly looked at news stations, it certainly out ranks most of them.

it means they have a cable news network so an internet stream is irrelevant.
Aren't you one of the "businesses making profit isnt a crime" types? I guess a foreign sounding name negates that.

I have no problem with it. Al Gore has managed to make a glorious fortune scaring idiots over nonsense. Although his TV network didn't work out so well.

Fuck the BBC, their Syrian coverage has been atrocious. They are rebel supporters or anti russian which seems to be part of the problem. They're no longer impartial and everything they write should be taken with a pinch of salt.

My local radio jazz station shares on air time with the BBC and they've covered Syria pretty well for the last two or so years. They were deff talking about all the shit going down before Americans hopped on the Syria bandwagon because of chemical weapons. I tune in to the station every day when I drive to work and havent heard anything biased, just facts about daily/total body counts, whos controlling what, and whos been bombing who, where, and how.
Not sure how the BBC handles it on TV or internet, but on radio, they are doing good.

Its not. Calling western friendly media "terrorist news" is pretty fucking funny though.
Every media has is slant, thats why you are supposed to read/watch more than just one outlet. Hell the Murdoch family ranges from Christian right in america to Far socialist left in India and thats just one corp.

That's why I watch FoxNews and FoxBusiness. You get both sides and you get it in spades when you want it.
