Hamas has rejected Israel's latest ceasefire proposal, despite reports suggesting talks had been progressing well. Meanwhile, Benjamin Netanyahu says a date has been set for a ground offensive in Rafah - which he has long been warned against.
Maybe you’re right and Israel kicked them out of the country because they had a blind spot.
It also could have been that Israel, like many countries before it, kicked them out because they were reporting truths that Israel didn’t want reported.
You cannot assume the former and use it as an explanation of Al Jazeera’s bias in regard to Israel.
Every news source is a biased news source. It would be impossible to post any news source here if that were the criterion being discussed.
The question is whether or not the bias is bad to the point of not being truthful, or wholly truthful. “Israel kicked them out” does not answer that question.
"95 journalists and media workers were confirmed dead: 90 Palestinian, 2 Israeli, and 3 Lebanese.
16 journalists were reported injured.
4 journalists were reported missing.
25 journalists were reported arrested.
Multiple assaults, threats, cyberattacks, censorship, and killings of family members.
CPJ is also investigating numerous unconfirmed reports of other journalists being killed, missing, detained, hurt, or threatened, and of damage to media offices and journalists’ homes."
FFS Isreal even kicked them out of the country. That’s more than a blind spot.

It doesn’t matter. Either way, they are a biased source.

Truthful defined by you?
If that concept was true in practice this wouldn’t have been a problem.
Again- your only reason given to not trust Al Jazeera as a source is that Israel kicked them out, which I already explained was not a good reason.
Do you have a better one?
Edit: Ugh. Wrote Al Qaeda.
Oh no israel the world authority on moral rights and press freedom!
Could have been worse…

In case you missed it. How could al Jazeera be a unbiased news source when it comes to Isreal?
