Speaker 1: Good morning, sixty four degree is at eight o'clock. It's Tuesday,
Speaker 1: September eleven. Here's what's happening against primary day and the
Speaker 1: polls are opening. September eleven, two am, the beginning of
Speaker 1: another day along the eastern seaboards, where we could be
Speaker 1: in for a solid open to the trading day. Stock
Speaker 1: index futures point to some buying for the broader market
Speaker 1: and for text. Then one minute later, six am, New
Speaker 1: York City. This justin. You were looking at obviously a
Speaker 1: very disturbing live shot there that is the World Trade Center,
Speaker 1: and we have unconfirmed reports this morning that a plane
Speaker 1: has crashed into one of the towers of the World
Speaker 1: Trade Center. American Airlines Flight eleven crashed into the World
Speaker 1: Trade Center's North tower. Minutes later, United Airlines Flight one
Speaker 1: slammed into the Trade Center's South tower. We're gonna take
Speaker 1: a look at videotape just moments ago of the second
Speaker 1: plane hitting the World Trade Center. That is spectacular pictures.
Speaker 1: Met two was a passenger plane. For HAPs some type
Speaker 1: of navigating system or some type of electronics would have
Speaker 1: put two planes, you know, the World Trade Center within.
Speaker 1: It looks like about eighteen minutes of each other. Within
Speaker 1: the hour, an American Airlines flight struck the Pentagon, the
Speaker 1: United Airlines flight goes down near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, and both
Speaker 1: World Trade Center towers collapsed. In just under two hours,
Speaker 1: two thousand people were killed and some thousand more were injured.
Speaker 1: Today we've had a national tragedy. Two airplanes have crashed
Speaker 1: into the World Trade Center in an apparent terrorist attack
Speaker 1: on our country. I have spoken to the Vice President,
Speaker 1: to the Governor of New York, to the director of
Speaker 1: the FBI, and I've ordered that the full resources of
Speaker 1: the federal government go to help the victims and their families,
Speaker 1: and and to conduct a full scale investigation to hunt
Speaker 1: down and to find those folks who committed this act.
Speaker 1: Terrorism against our nation will not stand. I'm investigative journalist
Speaker 1: Steve Gregory. The attacks of nine eleven forever changed to America.
Speaker 1: It also marked the beginning of the War on terror,
Speaker 1: with it the creation of new agencies like the Department
Speaker 1: of Homeland Security and the Transportation Security Administration, which implemented
Speaker 1: sweeping changes to how Americans would travel. Join me for
Speaker 1: nine eleven. Two decades later, an exploration of decisions made
Speaker 1: to make Americans safer? Do airport checkpoints work as the
Speaker 1: Patriot Act made us more secure? Did Americans even understand
Speaker 1: the color coded terror alerts. We'll talk with those behind
Speaker 1: the scenes, those who were there in the inner sanctum
Speaker 1: of agencies that made life changing decisions, and we'll attend
Speaker 1: to answer the question is America safer today than twenty
Speaker 1: years ago? H
