Sherine Tadros is a broadcast journalist, currently working for Al Jazeera English.


Tadros is based at the Al Jazeera English main broadcast centre in Doha in Qatar. She is a news anchor on the flagship programme ''Newshour''.[1][2][3] Previously, she was the station's correspondent in Gaza.

Career

Tadros graduated with a degree in Middle East politics, and then took a master's degree in the same field.

She began her career with the Al-Arabiya network, working as a producer, before joining Al Jazeera in 2005.[4]

During the 2008–2009 Israel–Gaza conflict, Tadros and her Al Jazeera colleagueAyman Mohyeldin were the only journalists for the English-language news media reporting from inside Gaza. Foreign press access to Gaza was barred, both by Israel and by Egypt. However, as Al Jazeera English was unique, among English-language broadcasters, in maintaining a bureau in Gaza, Tadros and Mohyeldin were already inside the territory, and familiar with their turf, when the conflict began. They were therefore able to provide an original and important record of the conflict, unmatched by the rest of the global media.[5][6][7][8]

She also covered the 2011 Egyptian revolution, as well as the uprisings in Libya and Yemen.

Awards

She received the Peabody Award on behalf of Al Jazeera for their coverage of the Arab Awakening. In 2012, Tadros was awarded the Breakaway Award at the 8th annual International Media Awards in London.[9]
