owe well, al jazeera, that is something that was al jazeera. i actually who later had been arrested and convicted as an agent for al qaeda. al jazeera is nothing more than a propaganda, mouthpiece hoping to reach millions of americans in order to influence a policy and influence the american voters. this is why we're very concerned. >> sean: let me give you a recent example. >> number one, it's not as if osama bin laden would call up and say i have a tape, run it. they would treat it as guess what? news. the guy was a news maker in their region. they'd take the tapes and they always edited them, cutting out what they thought were the most important parts and run them. and then, they would analyze them, critique them. let me say that if osama bin laden had ever achived power possibly the first people he would have lined up and shot were the people of al jazeera. who were very much his enemy. >> i have to disagree. the founders of al jazeera is a supporter of terrorism, just gave $400 million generous donation to hamas. this was just last october

the problem is with al jazeera -- and al jazeera is a fine news organization.ew times i've seen it it's been really solid reporting. but there's a lot in a name and americans have a long memory, and people are still kind of upset and remembering the fact that al jazeera showed those al qaeda tapes or, you know, video or audio right after 9/11, and i think that, you know, it still is to be seen whether america will warm to them and look past that happening post-9/11. >> what do you think about all this, margaret? >> look, what this is is the implosion of a far left-wing network financially. i mean, they -- current tv was losing, according to some reports, 12 cents per subscriber per month. they financially were unsustainable as a model. i mean, there was a massive blowout, as we all know, with keith olbermann, one of their star anchors. they ended up having to buy him out. financially it simply hasn't been a plausible business model. so this is probably the best thing to happen to current tv, to have the qatari government come along and offer them what is report
