It is one of the three largest English-language news channels worldwide, and is the sister channel of the Arab-language Al Jazeera. The station broadcasts news features and analysis, documentaries, live debates, current affairs, business, and sports. The station claims to be the first global high-definition television network.[1] Al Jazeera English is the world’s first English-language news channel [2]. The headquartered in the Middle East channel aims to provide both a regional voice and a global perspective to a potential world audience of over one billion English speakers, but without an Anglo-American worldview.[3] Instead of being run under central command, news management rotates around broadcasting centres in Kuala Lumpur, Doha, London and Washington, DC, "following the sun." The station also aims "to give voice to untold stories, promote debate, and challenge established perceptions", and to "set the news agenda, bridging cultures and providing a unique grassroots perspective from under-reported regions around the world". [4] Philosophy Al Jazeera English has stated objectives of emphasizing news from the developing world, of "reversing the North to South flow of information" and of "setting the news agenda". The latter is the channel’s main slogan. Some observers, including media scholar Adel Iskandar, have commented that this focus can be seen, in the eyes of Western viewers, as casting Al Jazeera English as a global "alternative" news network, though the entire Al Jazeera brand has been heavily mainstreamed in many parts of the world.[5] Other Al Jazeera English slogans and catchphrases include: "All the News | All the Time", "Fearless Journalism" and "If it’s newsworthy, it gets on air, whether it’s Bush or Bin Laden." Al Jazeera’s Code of Ethics mirrors some of these statements. The English brand identity and its "EVERY ANGLE | EVERY SIDE" promotional positioning was led by Director of Creative, Yalp.alice.it 2 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Morgan Almeida.."to preserve the amazing Arabic heritage and extend this in a language familiar to diverse global audiences". Al Jazeera English Al Jazeera English and Press TV were the only international English-language television broadcasters with journalists reporting from both inside Gaza and Israel during the 2008–2009 Israel–Gaza conflict. Foreign press access to Gaza has been limited via either Egypt or Israel. However, Al Jazeera’s reporters Ayman Mohyeldin and Sherine Tadros were already inside Gaza when the conflict began.[14][15][16] The channel is also currently available for viewing online. The channel recommends online viewing via Livestation, a free software (live, high quality), at its website (live, low quality), or at its YouTube channel.[17] Launch and reach The channel was launched on 15 November 2006. It had aimed to commence global broadcasting in June 2006 but had to postpone its launch because its HDTV technology was not ready.[6] The channel was due to be called Al Jazeera International, but the name was changed nine months prior to launch when it was absorbed into the Network administration.[7] The channel had expected to reach around 40 million households, but it far exceeded that launch target, reaching 80 million homes.[8] As of 2009, Al Jazeera’s Englishlanguage service can be viewed in every major European market, and is available to 130 million homes in over 100 countries via cable and satellite, according to Molly Conroy, a spokeswoman for the network in Washington. [9] It is one of the three largest global English language 24 hour news channels, the other two being BBC World and CNN International.[10] However the channel is noted for its poor penetration in the North American market, where it is not carried by almost all cable networks except local networks in Toledo, Ohio, and Burlington, Vermont.[11] It has begun a campaign to enter the North American market, including a dedicated website IwantAJE.com. The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission is considering a proposal the channel to air in Canada. Part of the review process includes a call for comments, in which Canadians can submit their opinions to the CRTC through its website, by mail or by fax. Comments must be received by June 8.[12] In 2008 Al Jazeera’s English language channel has won the The Golden Nymph award in the category of Best 24 Hour News Programme at the Monte Carlo Television Festival. The jurors especially singled out Nour Odeh, Al Jazeera’s Gaza correspondent, for her bravery in reporting from the Gaza Strip. Al Jazeera English also received nominations in several other news categories, as for example for the Best News Documentary award for the report Inside Myanmar – The Crackdown.[13] Programmes Regular/recurrent programmes on the channel are: • 101 East - weekly show hosted by Teymoor Nabili; Asian politics, business and current affairs • 48 - "In one city with only 48 hours, Amanda Palmer shows you the highs and lows of city living." • Everywoman - hosted by Shiulie Ghosh; "Everywoman is the first show of its kind from the Middle East to put women’s issues at its core.

The Washington Post quoted Marash saying, "The goal here is to be able to give the best-reported, most transparent report of all the English-language news channels." [19] In March 2008, Marash left the channel, claiming an increasingly anti-American editorial slant. He cited a decreasing trend in editorial input from Washington, including a "reflexive adversarial editorial stance" against Americans, and that the "Qatar-based management were exerting control on the channel’s overseas bureaux."[20][21] Personalities and staff Personalities who have joined the channel include[22] (previous employers in brackets): • Dalal Azar (Arab News Network, BBC World), • Felicity Barr (ITN), • Nick Clark (BBC World, ITV, various), • Stephen Cole (BBC World, CNN International, Sky News), • Brendan Connor (CBC) • Jane Dutton (BBC World & CNN International), • Hassan Ibrahim (Al Jazeera, various), • Darren Jordon (BBC World), • Riz Khan (BBC World & CNN International), • Avi Lewis (CBC), • Hamish MacDonald (Channel 4, ITV), • Julie MacDonald (British Journalist) (ITV, BBC World, GMTV), 5 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Al Jazeera English The managing director for Al Jazeera English is Tony Burman, who replaced Nigel Parsons in May 2008.[30] Availability The channel is available in many countries, mostly via satellite, sometimes via cable.

It is also available in Burlington, Vermont, Houston, Texas, and Washington, DC.[32] The channel is not widely available on cable and was dropped by Comcast, a cable company with a subscriber base of over 12 million people, a month prior to the channel’s launch due to "the already-saturated television market there" and a perception in some circles that the channel gives airtime to terrorists.[33][34] However, Al Jazeera English is available via satellite across all of North America free to air on Galaxy 19 on the Ku band in DVB format. In New Zealand, Triangle TV re-broadcasts various Al Jazeera programmes in Auckland and Wellington on free-to-air UHF channels. As does Stratos (free-to-air over Freeview satellite and terrestrial).

When subsequently joining Al Jazeera, Rushing commented that "In a time when American media has become so nationalized, I’m excited about joining an organization that truly wants to be a source of global information..."[25] Rushing works from the Washington, DC broadcasting centre. Former CNN and BBC news anchorwoman and award winning journalist Veronica Pedrosa also joined the team[26], along with CNN producer James Wright, and Kieran Baker, a former editor and producer for CNN, who most recently was Acting General Manager, Communications and Public Participation for ICANN.

And that’s what I see Al Jazeera doing." Josh Rushing: "I care more about the truth, and getting the truth in my story, than I do about controlling the message, like I did before when I was a spokesperson." Dave Marash: "We’re gonna seek out the areas neglected by the Western-oriented media." Rageh Omaar: "I think one thing you can definitely say about Al Jazeera is that it will and does evoke a reaction." Riz Khan: "In my lifetime as a journalist, there will not be another channel launched on this scale." Barbara Serra: "If it’s newsworthy, it gets on air, whether it’s Bush or Bin Laden."
