Al-Jazeera in English

The rather controversial Arabic channel, Al-Jazeera, that started broadcasting in Arabic 10 years ago, now has an English channel.

Here in Ghana, Metro TV has been showing live programming of Al-Jazeera for many hours, everyday. At least, we now have news and views from another perspective, as opposed to the western propaganda we were hitherto being bombarded with, by BBC World, CNN and DW-TV.

I have been watching the new channel and can only say that its a welcome development.
