Great question and great discussion. As well as the topics other people mentioned, I'd also add two more things:
1) Al Jazeera's model and cost structure is incredibly threatening to large US media corporations, which influences their coverage
2) There's a fair amount of anti-Arab feeling in the US -- some political, some historical, some flat-out racist.
