During the term, you may not do more than two clips from the same

Any clip you watch on this website is acceptable. However, you may want to avoid interviews and watch a report,
which will have more interesting video. Avoid descriptions like "Two
experts discuss..." )

menu.

clip using "E-mail this!" on the page.
