Al Jazeera Mubasher (AJM; ) is a public affairs television network launched by Al Jazeera Media Network on April 15, 2005. It is an Arabic channel based in Doha, Qatar that broadcasts conferences and other events live without editing or commentary, using subtitles when translation is needed. The channel is also sometimes referred to as Al Jazeera Live,[1] as mubasher is an Arabic word for live (as in live broadcast).
Al Jazeera Mubasher is the first channel of its kind in the Middle East, broadcasting 24-hour live news and events—similar to the US channel C-SPAN and UK channel BBC Parliament. The channel also has a live stream of its broadcast on its website.
In 2014, the channel underwent a graphics upgrade as part of Al Jazeera Media Networks' graphics upgrade across the company.
The channel has remote feeds and on-the-ground cameras broadcasting political gatherings, press conferences, discussions, and meetings, broadcasting the latest on political, social, cultural and economic affairs. The channel feed mainly provides live and uncut footage.
On December 20, 2014, it was announced that Al Jazeera Media Network would coalesce both Al Jazeera Mubasher and the temporarily suspended Al Jazeera Mubasher Misr into a combined channel called Al Jazeera Al-‘Amma (AJMG) or Al Jazeera Live General.[2]
