Al jazeera vs Egyptian government

Egypt government is doing its best to shut down the freedom of reporting. Al Jazeera's licence to broadcast from Egypt has been revoked, its bureau office in Cairo has been closed and the coverage of the events could be seriously compromised.
Al Jazeera said it would use any legal measures available to defend its right to report and to fight censorship.
This attack to democracy gave the network from based in Qatar the chance to start a new participatory experiment: bloggers, activists and citizen journalists can send their images and stories about Egypt question to Al Jazeera and become part of the reporting process which has been outraged.
