Holy shit. I get Al-Jazeera on channel 10.
Hofstra University's deal with DirecTV now gives us Al-Jazeera over-the-air and on cable.

4. MEMRI.org
Middle East Media Research Institute, If you want the most up to date news from that part of the globe. I am not affiliated in any way, just a subscriber.
