AT&T Lawsuit in 2003
Hello,
- There is a claim that Al Jazeera tried to sue AT&T in 2003 but this claim is missing a source. Does anyone know where this claim came from? MSulka (talk) 17:39, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
Ownership by state
It appears that QMC is owned by the state. I found one clear journalistic reference to that effect[1]: "Al Jazeera, owned by the state Qatar Media Corporation". However I can't find any official state documents that clarify who owns QMC. For example the MOFA link that's already in the article [2] is a government page which never actually says who owns QMC. There is no explicit statement that it is stated owned or controlled, but equally none to the opposite. I would appreciate it if anyone can provide more information.

- Will we all almost know that State of Qatar owns Aljazeera but there is no official documents from Qatar government that describe what kind of link is between both parties. The MOFA webpage listed Aljazeera as a media station based in Qatar but not as a subsidiary of QMC, which I believe it looks more like a government agency that control media, not owning it. The NY times article contains a segment from a Wikileaks document that can be considered as an opinion, not a fact.
- One more thing, I found a website run by Qatar News Agency and it lists all stations administrated by QMC for stream watching, and Aljazeera is not on the list.--A sanny (talk) 05:06, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
