The alternative take on this story (covered in articles elsewhere) is that the powers that be at AJE in Washington moved him away from the anchor role and told him to go back to reporting, which was where they reportedly felt his strengths lay.
Some might see that as a sideways move, some might see it as a demotion.
He was apparently happy enough to work for Al Jazeera English until that reorganisation.
If he really felt AJE was anti-American, then surely he would have resigned beforehand?
As it is, it just smacks of him being moved internally to a job he didn't want to do and him resigning because he refused to accept the role change. And then getting his revenge by pretending it was because of anti-Americanism.
Pram. Toys. Thrown.
I wonder if he would have been happy to continue working as a presenter if that option had been open to him? It wasn't too anti-American for him to work for AJE as a presenter in Washington DC, but it was apparently too anti-American for him to work there as a reporter. Huh?!
