Yousef Gamal El-Din, reporting live for the network and MSNBC during the height of the protests in Tahrir Square, was heard "urging protesters to leave him alone so that he could report". Anchors urged him to "stay safe" only minutes after the Battle of the Camel broke out. CNBC has described him as reporting under "the toughest of circumstances".

Gamal El-Din returned to Cairo several times since the beginning of the revolution to cover protests, and interviewed the Egyptian Interim Prime Minister Essam Sharaf only hours before July 8 “Friday of Determination” demonstration. He also reported on the Bahraini uprising, the 2011 Jordanian protests and the 2011 Turkish general election
