We’re not sure we expected, when we began rolling coverage of the post-election crisis in Iran, that we would still be going two months later. Well, the crisis continues, and so do we. We’ve amassed a huge collection of videos, including speeches, TV appearances, and many, many protests. Below are links to all of our video posts from the past two months, in chronological order. (Please note: some videos may be unavailable in your country, and some may no longer be available at all.)
If we’ve missed a video you think is important, do let us know. And thanks to all of you for reading and working with us.
This page will be updated on a regular basis as new videos become available:
[Editor's Note: If you are viewing this on our homepage, the "Neda" video, the 40-second clip of the death of a young woman killed by deliberate Basiji gunfire, is the first video on the full page after the "More" tag. We have only posted this video, as well as other images of death, after great deliberation. It is posted in the belief that Neda's killing may become a symbol for the Iranian political movement and demonstrations; we in no way wish to sensationalise the event.]

President Obama’s latest weekly address was on new consumer protection legislation, which was described as important for the recovery of the economy as well as for action against those companies that have benefited through abuses of consumers’ rights:
TRANSCRIPT:
As we continue to recover from an historic economic crisis, it is clear to everyone that one of its major causes was a breakdown in oversight that led to widespread abuses in the financial system. An epidemic of irresponsibility took hold from Wall Street to Washington to Main Street. And the consequences have been disastrous. Millions of Americans have seen their life savings erode; families have been devastated by job losses; businesses large and small have closed their doors.
