Al Jazeera Media Network (AJMN; Arabic: الجزيرة Al-Jazīrah [æl (d)ʒæˈziːrɐ], lit. 'The Peninsula') is a private-media conglomerate headquartered at Wadi Al Sail, Doha,[3][4] funded in part by the government of Qatar.[8] The network's flagship channels include Al Jazeera Arabic and Al Jazeera English, which provide coverage of regional and international news, along with analysis, documentaries, and talk shows. In addition to its television channels, Al Jazeera has expanded its digital presence with platforms such as AJ+, catering to younger audiences with formats and content tailored for online consumption. Al Jazeera broadcasts in over 150 countries and territories, and has a large global audience of over 430 million people.[9]

Originally conceived as a satellite TV channel delivering Arabic news and current affairs, it has since evolved into a multifaceted media network encompassing various platforms such as online, specialized television channels in numerous languages, and more. The network's news operation currently has 70 bureaus around the world that are shared between the network's channels and operations, making it one of the largest collections of bureaus among media companies globally.[7]

While AJMN receives public funding from the Qatar government, it is considered a private company, not a government station.[10] Despite allegations that the government of Qatar has editorial influence over its content,[11] AJMN maintains that its reporting is not influenced or directed by the Qatari government, and it does not reflect any official government viewpoints.[12] The network has often been targeted by foreign governments that are angered by its coverage.[13][14][15] During the Qatar diplomatic crisis, several Arab countries severed diplomatic ties with Qatar and imposed a blockade. One of their demands was the closure of Al Jazeera.[16] Other media networks have spoken out in support of the network.[17] [18]
