From Al Jazeera:
Al Jazeera correspondent Wayne Hay, cameraman Adil Bradlow, and producer Russ Finn are currently being detained by Egyptian authorities.

The arrests follow the detainment of Abdullah al-Shami who was performing his duties as an Al Jazeera correspondent when he was arrested after the raid of the pro-Morsi sit-in at Rabaa al-Adawiya on August 14, along with Mohamed Badr, a cameraman for Al Jazeera Mubasher Misr who has been held for more than one month.

These arrests are part of what Reporters Without Borders has called "growing hostility" towards journalists in Egypt.

There has also been a campaign against Al Jazeera in particular, as the channel's offices were raided last month and security forces seized equipment which has yet to be returned.
Arabic media is reporting that the Anatolia/Anadolu news agency headquarters in Cairo has been closed by Egyptian security. The Egyptian authorities say that the reason is "operating without permits, and working on publishing erroneous and false news." (Anadolu is not yet reporting this story.)

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss....
