Al Jazeera

Al Jazeera is a Qatari government-funded international news network headquartered in Doha, operated under the oversight of Qatar's ruling Al Thani family and widely regarded by foreign governments as a soft-power instrument of the Qatari state. Its English-language service leans toward progressive and non-Western framing on global affairs, while its Arabic service has historically been sympathetic to Islamist political movements such as the Muslim Brotherhood. Coverage of the Trump administration's second term has been broadly critical, with recurring focus on threats to U.S. democratic institutions, press freedom, and the administration's domestic and foreign policy conduct.
