I'd hardly go so far as to say a 'great talent'. She's okay as a newsreader - but was dreadful as a correspondent (so much so she was stopped from doing reporting for ITN - and ended up on the NC as a sort of booby prize). Quite captivating visually though.
As far as Al-Jazeera goes - bearing in mind the huge number of ex-ITN people who are going there (and presumably Sky and Beeb too) I think it's likely to be fairly sympathetic to the West.
Oh I think you're being a bit harsh there. As I said in another thread, I had a chat and a ciggie with Felicity at an event she was covering a few years ago, and believe me, she's totally clued up on her subject matter.
And ITV News didn't stop her from doing reports- she was given a senior role on the Olympic bid announcement.
I have my reservations about Al- Jazeera but time will tell, and those of you who think that beauty and brains don't mix are in for a pleasant surprise if Felicity is given a senior role there.

Morale is so low at ITV and she deserves this break. She's a great talent.
Over and out from me.
