Watch part two

Just days before Al Jazeera English makes its debut on television airways in the US, Al Jazeera's Josh Rushing hosts a town hall meeting in Washington DC.

The show goes behind-the-scenes at Al Jazeera English to look at the stories the channel covers, the way it covers them and how it differs from other international news organisations.

The audience, which includes members of the media, media critics and media observers, engage in a hard-hitting discussion with panelists Tony Burman, the managing director of Al Jazeera English, Sir David Frost, presenter Ghida Fakhry and Marwan Bishara, Al Jazeera's senior political analyst.

Changing Channels aired from Thursday, July 2, 2009.
