Al-Jazeera English has won a George Polk Awards in Journalism, one of the most prestigious journalism awards in the U.S. The TV network, which won the honor for television documentary, is now shown in 250 million homes and has penetrated top U.S. markets such as Chicago and New York. "This recognition ... is a testament to Al-Jazeera's commitment to put honest, eye-witness reporting at the heart of the global news agenda," said Al Anstey, the network's managing director.

As I said, America's own media is nothing but piss and vinegar. Now they can't even win their own awards.

Wrong again Tosser! it is more like Fluff and Crap!
The agenda of America media is to entertain not to inform the media in America has too make a profit like any other business some are driven by political motives like fox but mostly its about money, and good investigation reporting is not a money maker but a report about how Britney put her shirt on backwards and fell while getting out of her car is, or who is ahead in the polls in american horse race to the white house.
you will never see any real reporting on who money is backing who and what the effect each candidate proposal will have on the nation or the world the news will just mouth what sound bite each candidate pukes up.
So once again Tosser you are proven wrong about are great nation of America and how it works!
Are media is about fluff and crap not piss and vinegar

You have convinced me! It is so clear now!

Fluff and Crap it is!

It's good that arabs have a news service they feel comfortable with.

It's bad that they think it is incorruptible. The only way they will become a real player in the corporate/military/propaganda network is when they sell out to them. i would be willing to bet has already happened. Then arabs can become as manipulated as americans.

People like tosser lack the perspective to realize america is the leader of just about every category, including manipulating the populace and bombing poor people.

The only reason Al Jizz is still around is because america wills it to be so. One should ask themselves why.

commitment to put honest, eye-witness reporting at the heart of the global news agenda

Huh? Sounds commie/muslim/liberal to us.

"As I said, America's own media is nothing but piss and vinegar. Now they can't even win their own awards"

Do you even read your own links?

"and Sara Ganim, the reporter who broke open the Jerry Sandusky sexual abuse scandal at Penn State, were among the winners of George Polk Awards in Journalism, announced Sunday by Long Island University."

Does Sara secretly work for Al-Jazeera now?

What a fucking "Baghdad Bob" you are.

They won because the libs are on their knees moths wide open.

or mouths

whatever

Al Jizzer should be happy they won their journalism award. But they will now be devoured by the corporate machine. PunchyPossum is correct that America is the trail blazer, in five years from now Al Jizzer will have a good day Arab Nation show where drunk whore hostesses flirt with coked out hosts with their pants off.

Please explain.

Well of course they have! Journalism in this country is joke in this country, now. HUGE SURPRISE!

Their coverage of the Middle East, which seems to be all our Government cares about, is better than ours. They live there, they understand things like cultural differences between the multitude of tribes. But their coverage of the rest of the planet is meager.

But isn't the most important story the utter neglect of solutions to domestic problems. Unemployment, prosecuting Wall Street, the price of gasoline and food?

Considering that most journalists are lefties why am I not surprised!!!

They are in good company. NYT, Wapo, CBS, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, NPR;

I keep all jiz in my lexicon of news sources. Can't understand why toss would turn an accolade like this into a knock on US media though.

It's his DNA I suppose.

You have no idea how the media works do you, who selects what news story to cover how long the coverage will be on the news story, and how it is edited.

yes most journalists have a tendency to be liberal but most commentators on the news lean center right to conservative

It's because journalism takes intelligence, which is highly frowned upon by righties.

What a fucking "Baghdad Bob" you are.

What a fucking DinnerBoy you are. LOL

Honor killings are called "tough love", Head slicings are called "close shaves" and goat fuckings are called "pet care".

Oh yes I do love me some dinner.

Tonight we are having dungeness crab caught fresh from Pacific Ocean right off the coast here with some french bread and fresh melted butter (the real stuff not that fake crap). Perhaps a few fresh Oysters from Humboldt Bay (some of the best in the world). Along with that we'll have some fresh local caught clams in clam chowder. We'll have a little cob salad on the side and to top it off we'll have some fresh strawberry shortcake with lot's of whipped cream.

Tosser will be having a fresh bowl of Hate for America gathered from a dumpster in the slums Karachi. Then he'll wait his turn with 80 other Paki Teaboys to use the one indoor flush toilet on the block.

hope you enjoy your dinner... I'll enjoy mine!

They have a clear advantage with this last news cycle: most news has happened in the Middle East and most people there won't talk to Western reporters because they think they are CIA. Arab reporters can get access easier.

While this is most likely true, Al Jazeera employs many non-Arab reporters that are very effective at getting the "in-story". I've seen a couple of Americans with Al Jazeera as well, but most notably there are quite a few Europeans that work within the ranks. But I think a lot of it has more to do with the culture of Al Jazeera that sets it apart from other news outlets. Al Jazeera is most definitely not apart of the "Westernized Media" therefor much more respected and trusted by the likes of Al Queda - which then in turn gives them closer access to the stories.

After writing this out, I believe I just rehashed your post. Apologies =P

2 burgers made at home actually.

hope you enjoy your dinner...

I did. Thank you.

I'll enjoy mine!

That's the spirit, DinnerBoy!

I would welcome the Al Jazeera and other international news agencies viewpoint to supplement the current biased cable news networks.

ROBSON would also welcome a forced conversion to Islam as well as an Arab cock up his ass.

an Arab cock up his ass.

That would explain their Mideast coverage, but why do they have far better coverage on events in South America, Africa, Asia, and even areas like Indonesia? CNN is only network we have that can compete with their resources for covering events around the world, but the they've changed gears a bit here in US to compete with the other networks.

Al Jazeera actually speaks the truth.
Shitbags like FuckWitThom and Asshouse have probably never even watched Al Jazeera but they feel the need to regurgitate the bullshit that they've greedily lapped up over on FOX.

Let's fix that, huh?

All Jizz live feed. Watch it from anywhere in the world.

Holy crap Snoofy. That's batshit scarycrazy

How so? Remember when Fox News fought successfully for their right to tell lies?
