An Unlikely Audience examines the “confusion in the house” of Al Jazeera after its entry in the U.S. news media market and offers a novel explanation of the network’s struggles. A metaphor of a “port of entry” allows Will Youmans to foreground the role that specific locations played in shaping the network’s advancement and in molding its attempts to establish a solid footprint in the United States.enKovalyova, N., Book Review: An Unlikely Audience: Al Jazeera's Struggle in America, The International Journal of Press/Politics (23, 3) pp. 415-417.
