Al-Arabiya

According to Peter Feuilherade's 2003 Profile of Al-Arabiya TV,

Al-Arabiya, the Dubai-based satellite TV channel banned from reporting from Iraq by the country's interim government, is consistently rated among the top pan-Arab stations by Middle East audiences, although it was only launched in February this year.

So why did the terrorists target it?

Al Arabiya, which is majority Saudi-owned, has often been attacked on Web sites used by Islamist militant groups for its perceived pro-Western reporting.

The satellite channel, which has good access to Iraq's U.S.-backed government, said it was being punished for its objectivity.
