| Al Jazeera countersues Al Gore over $65 million |
| 2014-09-20 |
| Broadcaster Al Jazeera has gone to court to fight former US vice president Al Gore over $65 million in an escrow account that each claims as part of the sale last year of Current TV to the Qatar-based media company. In a countersuit filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery on Thursday, Al Jazeera is seeking to keep the money that Gore and his former partner Joel Hyatt had sought in a lawsuit filed in August. |

| #4 What a shame that they can't both lose. Well they will, sort of; the attorneys won't work for free. |

| #2 Hard to get excited about this story. Gore and Al Jizz both are not easy to love. Gore gets stiffed--the check wasn't in the mail. Al Jizz got shafted by Gore and a few others by over-paying for a channel that existed in someone's basement (or mind). Win-Win for the rest of us? |
