MEDIA STUDIES<br />

BATTLE BATTLE FOR FOR THE THE ARAB<br />

ARAB<br />

VI VIEWER, VI EWER, THE<br />

THE<br />

By Nordin Lasfar<br />

In early 2011, people around the world<br />

tuned into Al Jazeera to watch the<br />

Egyptian revolution in real time.<br />

Meanwhile, rival broadcaster Al Arabiya<br />

was also offering near continuous<br />

coverage, with cameras on a balcony<br />

overlooking the 6th October Bridge, where<br />

protesters and police clashed.<br />

How was the content of those broadcasts -<br />

and the networks' subsequent coverage -<br />

influenced by their political allegiances?<br />

Featuring interviews with current and<br />

former journalists from both networks, and<br />

analysis from independent pundits, The<br />

Battle for the Arab Viewer highlights the<br />

philosophical differences between the two<br />

pan-Arab networks.<br />

Al Jazeera was created by the Emir of<br />

Qatar after he deposed his father in a coup.<br />

The station typically champions the poor<br />

and social movements - such as the<br />

Muslim Brotherhood - that are hostile to<br />

the Saudi regime. The station has grown<br />

highly influential. In the film, a passerby<br />

stops Al Jazeera's chief Cairo<br />

correspondent on the street to thank him<br />

and the government of Qatar for<br />

supporting the anti-Mubarak forces,<br />

saying the network is "90%" responsible<br />

for the revolution.<br />

With Al Jazeera supporting elements<br />

hostile to Saudi Arabia, the Saudis set up<br />

their own network as a counterpoint: the<br />

more conservative Al Arabiya, owned by a<br />

close friend of the royal family.<br />

While The Battle for the Arab Viewer offers<br />

insight and analysis, it also shows how the<br />

battle between the two networks plays out<br />

on the ground in Cairo. We go behind the<br />

scenes with Al Arabiya journalist Randa<br />

Abul Azm and Al Jazeera's Abdelfattah<br />

Fayed as they follow stories, break news,<br />

and cover events such as Hosni<br />

Mubarak's trial. (Azm is allowed into the<br />

courtroom, but Fayed is not.)<br />

Azm and Fayed each mirror their<br />

networks' respective demographics. Al<br />

Arabiya appeals to well-off, middle-class<br />

viewers who value security and stability.<br />

Enter Amz, who lives in a building built by<br />

her engineer father, on a street named for<br />

her grandfather. Fayed, representing the<br />

network that purports to stand for the<br />

downtrodden, shows us a photo of his<br />

father, who worked in agriculture.<br />

Both deny that their work is influenced by<br />

the political agendas of their networks'<br />

owners. But former employees of both<br />

networks tell a different story. Particularly<br />

striking is the case of Hafez al Mirazi, who<br />

was taken off Al Arabiya's airwaves after<br />

promising to put Saudi Arabia under the<br />

microscope on his show.<br />

Media bias is nothing new - as Mirazi says,<br />

viewers of Fox <strong>New</strong>s and MSNBC each<br />

know what they are going to get. What is<br />

different in the Arab world is that the<br />

networks are directly owned by states. He<br />

says, "They keep shifting according to the<br />

countries they are sponsored by, and that<br />

affects the stories their citizens get on a<br />

daily basis."<br />

Ultimately, the problem may resolve itself.<br />

As democracy spreads through the region,<br />

will truly independent media follow?<br />
