Al Jazeera's Cairo bureau firebombed by Egyptian protesters — RT
Al-Jazeera's office overlooking historical Tahrir Square in Cairo was firebombed by protesters as the third day of violent anti-government demonstrations rages on in Egypt's capital The building was left gutted by the fire hours after protesters fell on the building with a volley of Molotov cocktails and gasoline bombs.Footage broadcast on Egyptian television showed scorched lighting equipment dangling from the charred walls. No injuries were reported in the attack.Earlier in the day, a mob fell upon Cairo’s security chief El-Sagheer as police and hundreds of protesters violently clashed on the square.Primarily young demonstrators have battled with police in the heart of the city since Monday. Protesters have regularly lobbed stones and firebombs at security forces, who have responded by firing birdshot and tear gas into the crowd.Protesters have accused Al-Jazeera of being biased towards the Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamist movement that was swept to power following the 2011 Egyptian Revolution.Many secular and youth movements have grown increasingly uncomfortable with the country’s perceived shift towards theocracy.Monday’s demonstrations erupted on the one-year anniversary of bloody street battles which left 42 people dead.

[ed notes;interesting..rt says protestors have accused aljazeera of being bias towards the muslim brotherhood(i disagree,unless its a typo by part of rt),whereas the zio saudi publication asharq reports it as aljazeera being accused of bias ''in support'' of muslim brotherhood (i think aljazeera has been quite supportive of mb)
