Saudi Arabia is funding a digital news platform that will feature some U.S.-based media professionals as it begins a new lobbying effort aimed at the White House and Congress.
The platform will have a studio in Washington, D.C.
The developments come almost three years after the killing of Washington Post journalist and Saudi royal family critic Jamal Khashoggi.
