    What are you trying to say ?

    Al Jazeera is unbiased? Really? Dumbest thing I have ever heard, with all due respect.

    Unbiased? No. Nothing is unbiased. Least biased? Yes.

    LOL. You would watch a network that is anti-american by nature and spews Islamic propaganda.

    Just because they don't talk about Republicans vs. Democrats like the US networks do, it may be harder for someone used to our networks to notice their biases but they are nowhere near unbiased, nobody is, and aren't any less bias than MSNBC and CNN.

    Just a quick question. Have you ever watched Al Jazeera English ?

    I think you're confused with the Arabic version of Al Jazeera.

    He has to be. AJE hasn't had anything anti-American as long as I've been following them. Now AJA caters to a different audience and clearly has it's slant.

    Do you honestly believe the bias doesn't bleed over?

    No... I've been watching Al Jazeera English for about 2 years and I've never seen any anti American sentiment.

    Just because it may not be obvious it's still there. Naturally they won't be as obvious on their English channel as their Arabic channel. but it's still there. It's the same people running it.

    Why would a news channel that needs its American viewers to drive revenue, put them off by being Anti-American?

    Riddle me that CrimsonTrojan.

    IDK. Probably because spreading the message is more important to them than ratings. I would be willing to bet that much of their revenue does not come from advertisement.

    Look they aren't going to be anti-American on one channel and then turn around and be neutral toward America on another, it's foolish to think that. Again it may not be obvious but I assure you that the anti-Americanism is in their English reporting however subtle it may be. Common sense man...common sense.

    Common sense would point to the all mighty dollar and that trumps any conspiracy you wish to believe.

    Fox News gets a lot of crap about being biased in favor of the Republicans, but these people are basically glorified cheerleaders for Obama and the democrats. According to them, any white person who doesnt like Obama is basically a racist

    I watch it for lockup

    Just went to their website...not a single ad on their homepage, so obviously you are wrong. Al Jazeera is more BBC than FOX or CNN.

    NPR is radically left. They can't claim to be unbiased when every single personality on their station is a liberal...every single one. I listen every morning and it's more than obvious how they lean. They have good presentation though. A bunch of liberals politely being liberal does not make an unbiased news source.

    BBC is left leaning too, but so is the country they originate from, I believe the BBC probably makes the biggest attempt at being unbiased of any broadcaster in the world. However since they broadcast from a very left leaning country, for the most part, their view of what is and isn't biased is rather skewed. But they are very good.

    What I said about the BBC is also true in a way for CNN. CNN is a network full of liberals in every aspect of the company. While I believe that for the most part they do try to be unbiased, usually anyway, if everybody in the building has the same world view their idea of what constitutes bias will be skewed. But I also think they intentionally lean left at times, in this regard they usually do so by the omission of certain stories or facts. Like waiting months before reporting about fast and furious.

    I have more respect for both FOX and MSNBC because they are at least honest about what they are. FOX's slogan notwithstanding.

    I'm a republican and I think that most of fox news' commentators are racist. So what?
