Hi all, I'm a long term editor of Wikipedia. Reading through these supposed "controversies and criticism", I see a lot of stuff that could be said about the New York Times, or the Guardian. It is not a controversy, that AJ focuses on Palestinian suffering over Jewish suffering, especially when 10 Palestinians are killed for every one Jewish person. Media outlets can attempt to balance global coverage. Perhaps this is too divisive a place to make the point, but the cricket fixing story is not a controversy.
This article should have a section in the AJ article, with a couple of examples, and a trailer to this article. This article should also be split into "controversies and criticisms", like the links between Qatari funding, and examples of stories, like the cricket fixing story. Peace and Love people.

Al Jazeera is unique, in that it is funded by the government of Qatar, a theocratic monarchy with ongoing human rights concerns, yet has established a widespread global outreach, including in Western liberal democracies.
This sentence would start with mention of the wider Al Jazeera Media Network holding company, as well as important context of its Qatari state-funding (which is a key topic around its controversies and criticisms).
The current opening section of the article confusingly starts by discussing Al Jazeera Arabic and Al Jazeera English separately, rather than focusing on Al Jazeera as a unified media conglomerate, and also neglects to mention the key point that the media conglomerate receives funding from the Qatari government.

Al Jazeera has been criticized for repeatedly spreading disinformation about Sweden,[1] such as accusing the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare of kidnapping Muslim children and having them raised by homosexual parents.[2][3][4]LivLovisa (talk) 23:31, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Someone else wrote down the same information, repeated, in a worse format.
