If you've been following the news about Egypt, you've probably heard that Al Jazeera has been shot down by the Egyptian government because of its rather comprehensive coverage of the situation.
The Egyptian government was so annoyed by the coverage that they shut down Al Jazeera's Egyptian office making it hard to get news from Al Jazeera about what's going on in Egypt.
Al Jazeera has embarked on a creative way to get its news out by releasing its reports under a Creative Commons license.
The contents are free to use by anyone with just an attribution. They can use the contents for both commercial and non-commercial use.
They even set up a special CC website for it.
Here's a sample of the video available on the site.
