Meta should label Al Jazeera and AJ+ as state media to prevent the spread of misinformation. Al Jazeera is state-controlled media funded by the Qatari government and advances their interests globally. It has been banned by several countries but not by Meta, allowing its content to flourish on Instagram and Facebook. Al Jazeera is dangerous because people believe its content without realizing it is state-sponsored and promotes terrorism. Meta should take responsibility and label Al Jazeera to prevent the spread of false information.
