It seems to be because they are launching Al Jazeera America tomorrow, which will be available on TV. I just tried visiting their live stream to see if that's still available, and got this message:

Thanks for visiting the Al Jazeera English live stream.
We have some great news to share – Al Jazeera America is launching August 20th! As a result, this live stream is no longer available in the U.S.
Visit here to see if your local television provider will be carrying Al Jazeera America. If you will not be receiving it, let your voice be heard and request it today!

That
would be good news if they didn't decide to restrict access to AJE because of it. I liked the commentary they had on that Empire show.
edit - Forgot to say: I'll try your recommendation tomorrow. Thanks.
