I haven't paid much attention to their American division, but their original reporting team in Qatar was pretty bad.  They basically couldn't say anything bad about Qatar or any other Persian gulf  country (other than Bahrain which Qatar had somewhat hostile relations with).

 

I am surprised they are reporting on the NFL at all though. 

It doesn't really matter who is reporting it since the info comes from a pharmacist who worked at this clinic.  Whether he is credible is the important part.  Not the news agency who reported it.

The News Agency or source reporting a story is the first thing I look at (not the only thing, just the first thing) when I decide if a story might have some validity.  For example, if a story like this comes from an agency that has a history of being more concerned about speed than accuracy (like most of the big TV news networks) then I tend to look at the article with some skepticism.  Fwiw, I generally trust the local newspapers more than the big national networks.

Julius Peppers and Clay Matthews are also on the list

A documentary that will soon air on Al Jazeera alleges that Peyton Manning and several other pro football and baseball players received HGH from an Indianapolis anti-aging clinic in 2011.

The report's lone source appears to be "Charlie Sly," a pharmacist who spent one year at the clinic and whose claims were made on secret video tape, without him knowing. Sly alleges he mailed HGH to Ashley Manning -- Peyton's wife -- "all the time." Added Sly, "And it would never be under Peyton’s name, it would always be under her name." HGH was not banned in the NFL until 2011, and wasn't even tested for until 2014. Sly later "backtracked" on virtually all of his claims, but not before also accusing Clay Matthews, Dustin Keller, Mike Neal, Julius Peppers, James Harrison, baseball players Ryan Howard and Ryan Zimmerman, and even Mike Tyson of using various forms of performance-enhancing drugs.

Harrison doesn't surprise me one bit.  That guy went from special teamer to DPOTY overnight.
