Just so you know, aj jazeera is still broadcasting live from cairo. The egyptian authorities have revoked their license, but they are still carrying on regardless just as they have in previous days.
I think the title should be changed, they have not in any real sense been "shut down."
- corin_ 16y agoIt reads that the bureau has been shut down, not their activities. They are still doing their coverage, but: - They have been kicked out of their Cairo office [1] [2] - Their "tv uplink" has been shut down [3] - Their correspondants in Egypt are no longer being named when reporting on air "for their safety" [1] http://twitter.com/nolanjazeera/status/31681013461557248 http://twitter.com/nolanjazeera/status/31681013461557248 [2] http://english.aljazeera.net/news/middleeast/2011/01/2011130164532649572.html http://english.aljazeera.net/news/middleeast/2011/01/2011130...

- JonnieCache 16y agoI am watching it right now and they are showing a live feed of Tahir square, Cairo. Maybe their studio there is down and they're feeding from a lone camera on the ground, straight back to their studios elsewhere in the world. EDIT: This does in fact seem to be the case.
