Al Arabiya TV News Transcripts in Arabic and English

I recently found a resource that could help with learning Arabic, especially with listening skills. The satellite news network Al Arabiya posts translations in English and transcripts in Arabic for it's News Bulletins along with the video of the program. The videos also have a Closed Captioning "CC" button so you can read the Arabic or English script.



Just go their News Bulletin page:

http://english.alarabiya.net/webtv/news-bulletin.html

And click on the latest video or scroll down to "Latest News Bulletins". Click on a bulletin, and another page opens with a video, translation and transcript.

Example:

http://english.alarabiya.net/en/webtv/news-bulletin/2015/07/06/1300GMT.html

To see the Arabic transcript of the program, click on "Transcripts".
