I think they should carry it. Then make it an additional $50 a month to view and whoever subscribes gets permaban lol

Is there any other reason to like them?

I like Al Jazeera.
I’ve listened to them for years on the way into work in the mornings.
A lot of times they cover US news better than any of the US stations and they do a **** better job @ world news than any US stations.

If I quit watching Al Jazeera it would be because Al “Ozone” Gore bought them out.

I'm glad Bily chimed in before I could, we can get flamed together.

Having just come from "that" part of the world, I can say this. They were one of the few english speaking news outlets available, Most (not all) of their coverage was fairly objective and unbiased (this is backed up by locals), and the coverage was surprisingly good. And in a place where every woman was covered from head to toe in black abbaya, Al Jazeera always had smokin' hot female anchors. I know, not a good reason to watch, but a nice bonus.

The aired the beheadings and torture of US citizens, and are directly responsible for the method in which the propoganda OBL was spat out , which also gave OBL an avenue to send messages to the cells.
Yeh.. I'll pass on anything they 'do a **** better job' doing.
Good for AT&T.
