In the Time interview, he acknowledges that Al Jazera is a flawed news agency.
"Rushing says he looked into the accusations about Al Jazeera distorting the news, and found nothing to stop him from joining. "I'm not condoning everything they do but the Arab media is a key part of national security and how to deal with Arab world."
"Like it or not, "Al Jazeera is the most influential Arab voice outside of mosques. It is the largest shaper of ideology," says Rushing. And if American voices are not heard in that venue, then they have no chance of having virtually any influence."

He gets to be used as a stooge for the Anti-American jihadists:
'In a time when American media has become so nationalised, I'm excited about joining an organisation that truly wants to be a source of global information," Josh said. "I witnessed during the war how the U.S. media was co-opted by the U.S. government's messaging. I am proud to be part of a news network that believes in the power of the un-spun truth."

He better take of that f***ing uniform before doing work for the enemy, or I suspect there will be a little wet work.

What a slimy little communist ****, twinkle-toes....
To: weegee
...not sure why you pinged me to this...
..then again, it's kinda nice getting pinged...
My opinion of this guy....
..If this story is true, and he's not a mole or double agent..(which I doubt)..
..then we need to let him stay there....forever.
...become a man without a country....only he's not on a ship....
..OK, a man without this country !
