Would you say Joseph Goebbels propaganda represented positive diversity of opinion? Al Jazeera is for all intents and purposes the propaganda ministry of Al Qaeda and other Islamists. It is not a legitimate news source in any way.

I don't think I agree with you. They do have various folks with a diversity of opinion. But it reflects the center of gravity in the Arab world overall, just as Foxnews represents the center of gravity of conservative opinion. We may not agree with that opinion, but I don't think that makes it propaganda. But I will try to watch and wait, now that they are offering up stuff in English. At bottom, I guess I am just less threatened by this sort of thing than you are. And I guess I am a champion of free speech. I always have been, and always will be, even when it becomes quite unpleasant.
