Ah, Mirembe... you're still wrong.
The Arabic versions have large photos.
But the English versions have small photos and are quite different. In one
photo, a man stands and looks at one of the dead Americans. No cheering, no
smashing the body with a stick. Just watching. This is quite a different
message than images of celebrating lynch mobs.
The second article is an article about the coverage in the USA. Pretty safe
to report that.
Both of the English articles are backpage articles. Not the front page of
the English edition.
It's pretty clear: al Jazeera played down the events for the global
audience.
Meanwhile, what's the story with the .com version of al Jazeera? Who is
behind that?
