Al Jazeera
Al Jazeera is a Qatar-based news organization that broadcasts in Arabic and English, founded in 1996.
The name means "the island" in Arabic, referring to the Arabian Peninsula.
It became internationally prominent for its coverage of the Middle East, including exclusive footage during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Al Jazeera is often praised for providing perspectives underrepresented in Western media, though critics—particularly from various governments—have accused it of bias.
Al Jazeera broke the story before any Western outlet picked it up.
