Al Jazeera is an international news network headquartered in Doha, Qatar. Initially launched as an Arabic news and current affairs satellite TV channel with the same name, Al Jazeera has since expanded into a network with several outlets, including the Internet and specialty TV channels in multiple languages. Aljazeera is accessible in several world regions. The station gained worldwide attention following the Sept. 11 attacks, when it was the only channel to cover the war in Afghanistan live from its office there. __
