Description

With more than 50 million viewers, Al-Jazeera is one of the most widely watched news channels in the world & also one of the most controversial. Set up by the Emir of Qatar, Al-Jazeera (”the island”) quickly became a household name after Sept. 11 by delivering some of the biggest scoops in TV history, including a string of taped speeches from Osama bin Laden. Al-Jazeera established itself as the premier news channel in the Islamic world by covering events Arabs cared about in a way they had never seen before. With unprecedented access to the news channel’s key players, reporters, producers, & financiers, Miles uncovers the behind-the-scenes story of Al-Jazeera’s meteoric rise & how its influence is shaping the course of the Arab world.
