Al-Modon
Founded as an alternative newspaper, located in Beirut, it proclaims to represent the "Lebanese and Arab civil society", and is issued by Rainbow Media S.A.L. Most sources refer to financial support and backing from media groups affiliated with the Qatari state, particularly Fadaat Media L.L.C - this explains a lot about how the paper was able to financially sustain itself amid the economic crisis faced by outlets across sectors. Sateh Noureddine is its Editor-in-Chief. Their editorial line is critical of Hezbollah, most sect-based parties, and the performance/conduct of Lebanese. Fadaat Media directly manages websites and TV companies in the region such as Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, Al Araby Television, Syria Television, and The New Arab, demonstrating the extent of Qatari investment, reach, and leverage over the sector.
