Al Jazeera is funded in whole or in part by the Qatari government. Wikipedia

Al Jazeera is heavily influenced by the Qatari government. The same government that has the death sentence for apostasy and homosexuality.

I think you need to reread his book, because looking at who funded the message is part of what Chomsky is talking about.

Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media

>The first level displays the public domain in which prominent ideologies within the masses can influence the intentions of mass media. The second level pertaining to the business firms accounts for the media’s source of information[14] as business firms are wealthy enough to supply information to media organizations while maintaining control over where advertisers can sell their advertisements and stories.

Why do I need to reread the book? What do you think I don’t understand?

I’m quite aware that Al Jazeera’s name is on the video. It’s right there, out in the open. All the video does is summarize Herman & Chomsky’s propaganda model. Do you think Al Jazeera’s involvement will give you cooties somehow?

You are applying the model to dismiss a statement by US State department about internationally recognized propaganda war being waged by the Russian Federation.
