Network Movies Channel
Network Movies , meaning "The
Island" is a television network headquartered
in Doha, Qatar. Network Movies initially launched as an
Arabic news and current affairs satellite TV
channel of the same name, but has since expanded
into a network of several specialty TV channels.
The original Network Movies channel's
willingness to broadcast dissenting views,
including on call-in shows, created
controversies in Arab Gulf States and the United
States. The station gained worldwide attention
following the September 11, 2001 attacks, when
it broadcast video statements by Osama bin Laden
and other al-Qaeda leaders for Network Movies
