White House Continues Cheering for Al Jazeera: ‘A Really Important Media Entity’

Hillary Clinton loves it. It seems to love the Muslim Brotherhood. And now Barack Obama seems to be a fan of it, too. What is “it?” The Middle Eastern cable news channel Al Jazeera.
In a lengthy article, Politico reveals that the once-demonized outlet during the Bush administration has become a favorite in the Obama White House. In fact, its programing is plastered all over Pennsylvania Avenue and Obama is singing its praises:
Seven years after then-Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld called the broadcaster’s reporting “vicious, inaccurate and inexcusable” and President George W. Bush joked about bombing it, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton praised it as “real news” in her recent Senate testimony.
Not only that, her staffers, as well as those of the CIA and the Obama White House, were attending the Congressional Correspondents’ Dinner as Al-Jazeera’s guests.
“They are a really important media entity, and we have a really great relationship with them,” said Dana Shell Smith, the State Department’s deputy assistant secretary for international media engagement, who speaks Arabic and has frequently appeared on the channel. “This administration has empowered those of us who actually do the communicating to be in a close relationship with Al-Jazeera. They understand that the relationship can’t consist of complaining to each other about the differences we have.”
The differences also have shrunk as the big story in the Middle East has shifted from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to the democratic movements sweeping the region. In the recent uprisings, U.S. interests tended to line up with Al-Jazeera’s, and President Barack Obama alluded to both the network’s influence and its pro-democracy bent in remarks caught on an open mic during a closed-door fundraiser last week.
“The emir of Qatar come by the Oval Office today, and he owns Al-Jazeera basically,” Obama said in remarks recorded by CBS News’s Mark Knoller. “Pretty influential guy. He is a big booster, big promoter of democracy all throughout the Middle East. Reform, reform, reform. You’re seeing it on Al-Jazeera.”
[...]
Today, when he visits the White House, officials tell him they watch AJE to monitor the protests, and at the State Department, “when you go down the hallway, you see it on virtually every TV and computer.”
That’s bad news, says Cliff Kincaid, director of the Accuracy in Media Center for Investigative Reporting and president of America’s Survival. He told Politico that Al Jazeera’s programming could put Americans at risk:
“To Comcast, and other cable and satellite providers, we say, do not expand Al-Jazeera throughout the U.S. Otherwise you will increase the chances of Americans being killed by those manipulated by ‘Jihad TV,’ the terrorist network, and you, Comcast, will have blood on your hands,” Kincaid told an audience of about 30 at the press club.

Posted on April 18, 2011 at 9:47amAl Jazeera, IMO, is like most news medias in this world. They have an agenda. I have read a few things on line by Al Jazeera and they were slanted , but just a little. They are better than most in the middle east and the do give you an insight on what the Arabs are seeing on their Televisions. However…they are still not exactly what you would want on televisions all over America because they are capable of anti-American propaganda in a subtle way. The idea that the obama white house has it all over their computers does not surprise me. But really….Al Jazeera or MSNBC….what is the difference? None !

Posted on April 18, 2011 at 12:19pmReporting when America screws the pooch is not propaganda.
NOT reporting it would be. American soldiers kill civilians. Not every soldier, not all the time, but it happens quite often. American airstrikes miss their targets. Again, not every one, but it happens. American politicians lie and go back on their promises or are simply corrupt. Would you rather have someone who reports only the corrupt Democrats? Watch Fox. Would you rather have someone who reports only the corrupt Republicans? Watch MSNBC or what have you. Or would you actually like to be informed about the whole story?
A good indicator of a good news network is both sides calling it slanted. An even better indicator would be the news network reporting both sides calling it slanted.
Al-J did just that when both Israel and Palestine accused them of being for the other side.

Look into the past for answers in part to Obama’s hatered for Israel; the area formerly known as the Palestinian protectorate was dominated by the English empire after WW1, and suppressed many of the arab’s seeking their own liberation; That is one part of his hatred of Israel, who he blames for being in existence due to both england and American recognition.

Posted on April 18, 2011 at 11:38am@ Cobra Blue “Hey…maybe vote for a Democrat this time…”
Why in the hell would we want to vote democrat??? The president is a pathological liar, hell bent on the destruction of the United States. The majority of the democrat party falls in line with this philosophy and is very open about race and class warfare, the enemies within the gates. They demonize oil companies and corporations which have brought modern industrialization and a higher standard of living than most of the world enjoys. Our retirement plans and 401k’s are invested in these same oil companies and corporations. They say they are working for the middle class and the poor but do everything possible to destroy them. They are either stupid or doing it deliberately. I have seen enough video of them, in their own words, to know it is deliberate. The dems embrace our enemies and shun our allies. The dems support the satanic religion of Islam and attack Jews and Christians. The dems have acted to destroy the US military through repeal of DADT over a immoral minority of 1.7% (gays in American society according to the demographer working for the US Census). This administration openly supports the racial discrimination of whitey, yet supports, defends, and encourages illegal immigration and reparations (social justice). This administration is acting outside of the constitution, outside the law, and in direct defiance of a federal judgment of the unconstitutionality of nobamacare, which was rammed down our throats in defiance of the will of the American people, 100% by the dems. If you like the boot of the federal government on your neck while they steal your wallet from your back pocket, vote democrat… thieves, thugs, and liars. What we need is a Calvin Coolidge to cut the government and taxes by 50%. What we need is a president with enough balls to protect America and build an Israeli-like wall along our border with Mexico which is currently in a narco war spilling over into the US, and allowing terrorists to just walk in. What we need is to reset the country under GOD and within the confines of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. What we need is to eliminate the influence of the socialists and environmentalists in defense of the United States. Drill here, Drill now. If you dont like the US as it was founded, leave. France and the UK already have all the pitfalls the dems are trying to secure here. We used to kill commies on foreign battlefields. Now they serve in our government. Vote democrat???

Posted on April 18, 2011 at 4:11pmWhy aren‘t we CHRISTIAN AMERICAN’S not surprised by this recent revelation of the Administration’s love affair with Al Jazeera Cable News Network ? President Barack Hussein Obama, alias Obama-Bin-Lying, in one o his speeches during his trip to the Middle East didn’t blink or flinch when he said that “America is a Muslim Nation”. Since then, he has bent over backwards in an effort to prove himself right.

Posted on April 18, 2011 at 5:42pmI’m just perplexed as to why the administration would be at all concerned about Al-Jazeera. It’s kind of a slick station (lots of gloss and you can tell it is well funded). However, it has very little domestic penetration. In fact, you can pick it up off of KU-band satellite as a free station (no encryption). You can also stream it free. This indicates that no one is really watching it in the US except, apparently in the White House.
So why would the Administration be so infatuated with AJ? It’s really just another CNN with funny graphics and a lot of translated Farsi. The only thing I can figure is that they are trying desperately to ingratiate themselves the the Mullahs. Anyone else have a clue as to what the motivation might be?

I would leave the flags as they are. Stick to your guns and explain, just as you did in your post, to each and every person that gives you crap over it. I see exactly what it is you signify by having both flags in the positions you have chosen. The statement you are making it is at least geting some people thinking. Keep up the good work!

Posted on April 19, 2011 at 12:31amI sure hope this story is read by millions of Americans. When this Muslim mouthpiece is greatly promoted in the White House, then it is REALLY time to clean house in 2012. Have we forgotten 9-11? The answer is NO.
