- Question
- My Lords, before alarm bells ring in the ear of my noble friend on the prospect of Al-Jazeera having an interest in taking over ITV, will he bear it in mind that Al-Jazeera was the only thoroughly objective news-gathering service during the course of the recent dispute in Gaza?
- Answer
-
My Lords, I described the possibility as exotic, not objectionable. I hear what my noble friend says and will take that into account should any eventuality arise concerning that broadcasting organisation in the future.
