Al Jazeera English Live

Al Jazeera English is the 24-hour English-language news channel of Al Jazeera Media Network, headquartered in Doha, Qatar, with further main studios in London and Washington. Hourly bulletins sit alongside its own programmes: Inside Story on the day's big question, The Listening Post on the media, 101 East with stories from Asia, Counting the Cost on the economy, The Stream, the interview show Talk to Al Jazeera and the documentary strand Witness.

The channel made its name with frontline reporting from conflict zones. Its Arab Spring coverage won numerous awards, including a Peabody, and during the 2008–2009 Gaza war its reporters were already inside the territory when foreign press access was restricted.

Al Jazeera English launched on 15 November 2006 as the first global English-language news channel based in the Middle East. The network is partly funded by the government of Qatar. A useful counterpoint for viewers used to European or American news channels.
