In 2000, he had established a separate company, Television News Release Ltd. (TNR), which was also acquired by the PA. He has worked in the field of foreign television news for more than 25 years. Before establishing INP, he was news editor at Middle East Broadcasting (MBC), where he established the first pan-Arab television news network. He was also senior news editor at BSB, now BSkyB.
