AJE fills a void, which is a focus on developing countries (not only middle-east, but also Latin America and East Asia), together with an "old school" kind of journalism (factual, in-depth) which is hard to find today. The production-quality is outstanding, at BBC level -- In fact, many AJE professionals come from BBC.
Unfortunately AJE is not broadly available, but you can still watch it live on YouTube, as well as all archived documentaries and reports.
EDIT: "focus on developing countries" does not mean that they do not report on developed countries as well. For example "Fault Lines" is a fantastic show about the US with subjects that US-based media never go deep or even report at all.
