Maybe we are so used to seeing our news channels being tools of propaganda that some people assume that this channel must be a terrorist propaganda machine. Like Taos said, they are an excellent unbiased independent news source in Argentina.

This may seem foreign to some because now a days this type of thing is foreign. Lots of thanks for that go to Rupert Murdoch.

Argentine in Exile,

I am not familiar with Al Jazeera’s work in the Middle East, so am not qualified to comment wisely or judiciously about it.

But I am familiar with Al Jazeera’s work here in Argentina. Not only do I know the local AJ staff but I have worked with them. The producer is a friend of mine, and I feel completely comfortable standing by him and his integrity and ethics as a journalist.

Al Jazeera does some excellent work here, and indeed is in many ways one of the finest news organizations in the region, producing very high quality, fair reporting, which is precisely why I like to share their videos with readers here on the Post.

Hey Argentine in Exile. You are saying Al Jazeera doesn’t have the right to make a video about what is going on in Argentina?

And why should Taos posting the video as an overview make you want to unsubscribe – he didn’t make any opinion on Al Jazeera (although to be honest, for me, their reporting is better than many news sources in Argentina).

By the way, I think you need to unsubscribe yourself…

Funny! ist the same “well respected” Al Jazeera who get the videos about decapitations, torture, suicide bombs at markets, open spaces with women and children, and never stop defending those muslims terrorists being the one informing the rest of the world about our country?.
