OT: Al Jazeera in English
For the interested, a few weeks ago, Al Jazeera Global/Al Jazeera english launched.
The site is english.aljazeera.net. No "WWW." This should not be confused with aljazeera.com, which is an opinion rag run by the al jazeera network. Totally different. (ie, one is a legitimate news source, the other is...something else....I'm trying to find something to compare it to in my brain and I'm having a hard time. Maybe British tabloids...)
Anyway you could get similar content before, but the website has been cleaned up a bit. Of note, this is coupled with english language broadcasts worldwide, except, of course, in the United States, where no cable company would carry it
Anybody else have any other good, established news sources out there - ones preferably not all wrapped up in what's going on in U.S. borders, like our major media outlets!
