MODERATORS
They are the remnants of BBC Middle East, hence que quality. They are, however, funded by the government of Qatar, and you won’t see that country being cast in unfavorable light in their articles. But other than that, they’re great.
Remnants? What happened to them?
A really good article about it. TLDR: BBC decided to close it. But do read the article, it shows why Qatar decided to fund it, and it's really interesting.
