They’re a state media from Qatar; Pro-Palestine, Anti-Imperialist, usually (unfortunately) Anti-LGBT.
Provides World and Middle East coverage primarily but also I’ll see African (normally northern African) and SEA coverage as well.
I view it in the way as RT or CGTN, use it be aware of developments from a anti-imperialist POV and conduct my own research from there.
Additionally they, like RT and CGTN, also have RSS feeds for news apps. 👍
They are not consistently anti-imperialist, and on certain topics they are closer in their geopolitical stance to BBC and CNN than they are to RT or CGTN. The main positive thing they have going for them is that they are pro-Palestine (as it would be completely untenable for a news outlet of an Arab country to be pro-Zionist).
But you will frequently see them parroting imperialist propaganda narratives about China for instance. And that is no surprise since Qatar is a Western protectorate.
If you want actually anti-imperialist outlets from the Middle East you should try Al Mayadeen or PressTV.
