From what little of their reporting that I've watched, Al Jazeera has been of very high quality, and their "third party" point of view has been very refreshing.

Best of luck to them!

I watched the Al Jazeera "Counting the Cost" episode discussing alternative currencies. Very interesting. People with ideas discussing said ideas instead of taking potshots at each other.

The U.S. media can take a lesson from Al Jazeera: really high quality productions with interesting graphics. It makes American news shows look like video games.
