Freezes my phone
I have narrowed it down to this app that causes my iPhone to freeze after using. It freezes up for few minutes every time I open. I really want to read news with Al Jazeera perspective but it is almost too annoying to go into. Wish this could be fixed
Fast, accurate, least biased
I have tried a myriad of sources for my news, but they have all been opinionated. Aljazeera has also got one of the most impressive turnarounds for finding and reporting news stories as they occur. Still take some articles with a grain of salt, if they show bias, which isn’t often, it’s very slight and it’s left leaning. Of course that’s not including their opinion articles, but those are clearly labeled. Aljazeera also covers a variety of different world issues which makes them consistently interesting, there’s always something written about one my interests.
PS: I did wish in their opinion articles they would include some slightly more conservative ideas, especially regarding Israel. If they already offer those, I been able to sort through the stories to find any.

World wide journalism on full display
Al Jazeera (AJ English) has continually shown itself to be the epitome and standard for integrity in the broadcasting of “citizen-led” journalism throughout the world. There are many stories that would never ‘see the light of day’ were it not for AJ English. As we have seen in recent years, the active attacks on investigative journalism has led to both government suppression of freedom of thought and beliefs, and the will of the people being heard and listened to. The people have a voice in AJ English and that voice speaks for the betterment of all mankind.

An alternative viewpoint
I look forward to reading AJ on a regular basis. It is a breath of fresh air as it is not tied to the western axis.
I am a Christian first and foremost but I believe, and this viewpoint may cause me future problems, that the DNA of Abraham was as much part of Ishmael’s makeup as it was of Isaac.
Therefore, in my opinion, it it is right and proper that one is able to get an alternative viewpoint.
As Abraham is recorded in the Hebrew Scriptures as saying: ‘shall not the judge of all the earth do right’ ??
Shalom, Salaam, Peace

Slow videos
Your videos are almost impossible to view. They take such a long time to download that unless you have spare time to sit and wait for them, you cannot play them. Almost every time I try to play one of the videos I end up giving up. Even when they do play, they keep stopping constantly to catch up with the download. I’m not technical but other news site have a far more acceptable technique for playing their videos.

NON-fake News for thinkers seeking equal justice!
In a time when we are told that up is down; that black is white; that lies are truth; that fiction is fact; that wrong and might is really right, just because...; and, that if you don’t agree, you should just disappear, or you will be disappeared, it is refreshing, while painful, to read and see reality. Thank you!

Follow the money.
Got that right! For your edification the deal between the news media and Bill Clinton in 1996 was the beginning of the love affair. The networks were afraid that they wouldn’t get there share of the new available frequencies that the FCC was splitting up at the time. The Clintons needed air time and at that time were next to broke. The Clintons promised the Networks special consideration after the election for air time. The deal was struck and we got Clinton. The networks got more than their share of the best new available frequencies. It’s the best example of selling political favors ever. Thanks for asking the question!

Amazing Unbiased truthful reporting
Apart from the HQ being based outside the Anglo-American sphere of influence, this news station simply speaks truth to power despite constant bombardment (its headquarters and journalists where literally attacked) from dictatorial regiems. Don’t listen to those you say this is fake news. Just give it a try. As an African I find it the best most current most objective news source that does not contain any ulterior motives. The app could have a nicer UI but apart from that even the app is of a high standard.

Great journalism
I rarely write reviews for applications, but this one deserves one. I have been using the app for a month and I comfortably say this is th best news source out there. In a time where media cares more about getting clicks than delivering information, Al Jazeera seems to be the only ones sticking to their guns and inform their users about the world. Thank you.
