Qatar formally lifted censorship of the media in 1995 and since then the press has been essentially free from government interference.

"essentially free from government interference."
" Al-Jaz is privately owned and operated."
You can think that.

Let's remember that since Al Jazzera is government owned and operated (sarcasm) then it obviously called for it's OWN overthrow (dripping ironic sarcasm).
Let us thank the Qataris for their support now as well as in the future.
