What it does
Al Jazeera's English site publishes world news, analysis, opinion, documentaries and live coverage, with extensive attention to the Middle East.
Start with a regional report, then use the linked explainers to understand the people and institutions involved. The site's distinction between news, opinion and long reads matters when comparing coverage of the same conflict. The broadcast schedule and channel finder help readers choose between the live channel and an individual report; podcasts offer an audio route into the same wider coverage.
Strengths
