Al Jazeera

Qatari state-funded

Al Jazeera is owned and largely funded by the government of Qatar, giving it a state-media designation from independent monitors despite its own claims of editorial independence. Its English- and Arabic-language coverage of the second Trump administration has been consistently critical, focusing heavily on press-freedom crackdowns, media bans, and administration rhetoric against journalists.
