9/11 News Coverage Documented


Pretty amazing site.

Edit: Kind of helps to have this 9/11 Timeline handy.  (And I watched some of NBC's coverage of the first tower collapsing and it was stunningly inept. The camera was on the tower and you could clearly see it fall in on itself (4:38 mark). Tom Brokaw and Matt Lauer mention that part of the building had collapsed but seconds later Brokaw says that both of the buildings would probably have to brought down because of the damage. They then cut to the Pentagon and yap for almost the next 8 minutes.  It wasn't until the 12:20 mark when finally Matt Lauer tells viewers of the total collapse and they pull the video to show.)

I'm at the point where enough is enough.

We don't have to forget but, we don't have to relive it over and over for so many years now.

And, that memorial should have been finished a long time ago! It's ridiculous to have taken this long. There is no reason for that other than people milking the money bag with greed.

I will never understand the bloggers/commentors who say "can we just forget about 9/11"!

Devil you need to learn how to read.

Interesting broadcast chronology of that week in September 2011. Thanks for posting, BG.

11:51, I submitted my comment before your was available for viewing. I wasn't talking about you. Many bloggers/commenters suggest we should just move on like nothing ever happened....these comments have been going on for years.

For future reference, I would have addressed your comment directly if I had something specific to say about it.

Uh, oh! That should read "2001" not "2011". Stupid Drake University journalism degree.
