Aljazeera Publishing was formed in 1992 in London to produce content for expatriate Persian Gulf (i.e. those from the region known as Aljazeera) residents living in the United Kingdom. Aljazeera Publishing was disbanded in April 2011 after the sale of its main assets to regional media organizations including Al Jazeera Media Network, Noor Media and MBC. Despite the similarity in names, Aljazeera Publishing has no relations nor affiliation with the Qatari state media conglomerate Al Jazeera Media Network. Al Jazeera Magazine Aljazeera Publishing first published a monthly magazine in 1992 called Al Jazeera Al Arabia. From its start to 1993 the magazine was published by Shiite opposition groups exiled in London. Since then it has adopted a shortened version of the name as simply Al Jazeera Magazine as listed in Media UK. The shortening of the title occurred after an external investment by a Saudi Arabian investment company. Al Jazeera Publishing was highly critical of the Saudi Arabian government’s human rights records and published a number of critical reports in 1993, 1994 and 1995. These human rights reports raised Al Jazeera Al Arabia’s profile on the Middle East stage. Extracts of such reports were used in a Human Rights Watch report as published in 1993, as well as the Islamic Research and Information Center. Since 1996 no more anti Saudi Arabian stories appeared in any of Al Jazeera Publishing titles, rather the attention appeared to have turned against the Qatari ruling family with a string of hostile articles such as "Egypt arrests Qatari prince over illegal car race", "Qatari prince convicted of abusing girls", "First church in Muslim Qatar risks backlash" and "Qatar finances sports centre in Israel". In March 2011 Al Jazeera TV Channel acquired Aljazeera.com and redirected to the website of Al Jazeera English. Aljazeera.com is, since March 2011, the main address for the Al Jazeera English website. The domain name was acquired by Al Jazeera Media Network in March 2011 from Aljazeera Publishing, a Dubai-based media company which owned the separate Al Jazeera Magazine, after a long-running domain name dispute between the two entities. History of Al Jazeera Magazine Until March 2011, aljazeera.com was an English language website for Al Jazeera Magazine, which was unrelated to the Arabic satellite TV channel Al Jazeera and Al Jazeera English; the latter operated websites in both Arabic (www.aljazeera.net) and English (english.aljazeera.net). It was also unrelated to Al Jazirah Newspaper of
