They interviewed this gal on Fresh Air a month or 2 back, and the clips from the documentary they played were excellent. Its weird how we view Al Jazeera as a mouth-piece for the Islamic governments of the Middle East, while most of those same government hate Al Jazeera for exposing their corruption and human rights violations.

It will be interesting to see how the growth of an independent voice in the Middle East, coupled with Iran's growing youth culture, will change the region.
