I have been watching Al Jazeera and it seems to be exactly like the BBC World News. The music and the liberal secularist views and propaganda it has. There is no hint of Islam or Arabic culture, it is totally westernized. Who really owns it now?
Al Jazeera has been variously accused, in public, of being anti-West, heavily pro-Sunni and anti-Shia, pro-Muslim Brotherhood and anti-Israel. It has also been asserted by some journalists (including a few of its former employees) that the ruling family of Qatar has a substantial amount of influence on the network, in terms of their interests and in terms of Qatari foreign policy.
Your assertion is new to me, and as far as I'm aware, it's an accusation that hasn't been widely disseminated by anyone of importance up to this point.

Accusation? I watch their video's daily just so I can laugh.
Prior to 911, it was a channel which reflected the Middle Eastern view of the world.
Then, once 911 happened, within a few months Al Jazeera was forcefully closed down.
A year later it was back, but under a new umbrella, and not reflecting the Middle Eastern view of the world, rather, seeking to foment polarised narratives of it instead.
Ive noticed changes over the years. The early years it was interesting but now its just another clone of the mainstream liberal media. Think many of the globalists didnt like its independent slant so applied 'pressure' on the Qatari royal family.
We are living in such a diverse world but its remarkable how samey corporate media outlets are.
Allah ailam...from time to time everything around us change...from our skin,surroundings,nature culture,people...it is very amazing Allah create more and more beautiful creation from time to time...we die...it is very miracle for those who think
