Dude Al Jazeera's fuckin fantastic
It is quite literally the only news I'm aware of which is (1) fairly big and professional, competent (2) not automatically pro-Western on everything (3) not run by some government, and filled with stories about how that government's great and any bad stories about it are evil lies
Uhm... This is a joke, right?
Al Jazeera is the Qatari government. The stateargely responsible for the funding of Hamas, and the believed home of Hamas leadership.
I can't imagine this comment you made was done in good faith. Or are you that ignorant?
I mean they're not gonna say bad shit about Qatar, but other than that they're pretty good.
They won't tell the truth about right wing theocracies, but you trust them otherwise?
You are very lenient on your sources. I'm not that lenient.
Uh... That's not how bias works.
I am willing to listen about how bias works if you are willing to inform me.
