I enjoyed Al-Jazeera when I could find it operating online – certainly not because I agreed with the slant of their coverage, but rather because they were putting out a story that alot of the rest of the world was seeing. It was quite entertaining.
I have to admit that this certainly does not suprise me, but I am wondering why I’m not seeing the outrage about this in the popular media here in the United States…
I’M SHOCKED, SHOCKED: The head of Al Jazeera has been fired in response to charges that he worked with Saddam’s intelligence services. Boy, you sure wouldn’t have guessed that from their coverage, would you?… [Instapundit.com]
