Internet archive shows Sept. 11 coverage (http://www.chron.com/entertainment/article/Internet-archive-shows-Sept-11-coverage-2156170.php)
NEW YORK (AP) — For many in New York and Washington, Sept. 11, 2001, was a personal experience, an attack on their cities. Most everywhere else in the world, it was a television event.
TV's commemoration as the 10th anniversary approaches on Sunday puts that day in many different contexts. There is one place, however, for people to see the Sept. 11 attacks and the week after as they unfolded, without any filters.
The Internet Archive, a California-based organization that collects audio, moving images and Web pages for historical purposes, has put together a television news archive of that day's coverage.
More than 20 channels were recorded with more than 3,000 hours of television. Besides major U.S. networks like ABC, CBS, CNN and NBC, the Internet Archive has posted online TV recordings from Moscow, Paris, London, Baghdad, Tokyo, Ottawa and elsewhere.
The site is available at http://www.archive.org/details/911/day.
The material is valuable to researchers, but the Internet Archive wanted to make it easy to use so the general public can go back and see what that day was like, said Brewster Kahle, the organization's director. >>>
An accurate and valuable resource. You can also click on the picture above to go to the video archive (website).

That was a sad day for our country.....I remember watching the news. Watching people actually jumping out of the buildings, remembering my heart accelerating. My mum was in Mexico on holiday, she couldn't fly back till almost a week later....

Even "Hechos" - TV Azteca (Mexico) (http://www.archive.org/details/911/day) had coverage of the North Tower on their morning show, the morning of the attack at 8:57am.
Lady Liberty took a hell of a hit that day ... and now the Boy King and democrats are here to finish the job.

I remember being glued to the television that time. One video that gets to me is under September 13, 2001 on WTTG-TV. It is the 1:30 AM to 2:00 AM and it is one the younger victims, Rodney Dickens. Really sad. :( :bawl:
