Al Jazeera paper to rival Saudi Arabian dominance

Qatar's Al Jazeera group is backing the launch of a new pan-Arab newspaper as it seeks to establish Doha as an Arab media capital and break Saudi dominance over regional print media. Abdul Wahab Badrakhan, the former deputy editor of the Saudi-backed Al Hayat daily, will edit the paper, which is expected to start publishing next year from Qatar. The news comes as Al Jazeera celebrates its tenth anniversary and follows the announcement of a November 15 start date for the launch of its much-awaited English language news channel.
