Al Mayadeen ("The Squares" in Arabic) is a
pan-Arabist satellite television channel launched on 11 June 2012 in
Lebanon.
[1] The channel aims at reducing the influence of the popular
Al Jazeera and
Al Arabiya networks, both funded by oil-rich Sunni Gulf Arab countries.
[1] It also plans to present an alternative to mainstream Arab satellite media, largely dominated by these two channels.
[2] All-news Arab TV news channel BBC Arabic and
Sky News Arabia are other competitors of the channel.
