WEBVTT - Introducing: 9/11: Two Decades Later

0:00:00.320 --> 0:00:03.279
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, sixty four degree is at eight o'clock. It's Tuesday,

0:00:03.320 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>September eleven. Here's what's happening against primary day and the

0:00:06.120 --> 0:00:11.160
<v Speaker 1>polls are opening. September eleven, two am, the beginning of

0:00:11.160 --> 0:00:13.680
<v Speaker 1>another day along the eastern seaboards, where we could be

0:00:13.680 --> 0:00:16.280
<v Speaker 1>in for a solid open to the trading day. Stock

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:19.080
<v Speaker 1>index futures point to some buying for the broader market

0:00:19.239 --> 0:00:24.680
<v Speaker 1>and for text. Then one minute later, six am, New

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:27.800
<v Speaker 1>York City. This justin. You were looking at obviously a

0:00:27.920 --> 0:00:30.880
<v Speaker 1>very disturbing live shot there that is the World Trade Center,

0:00:30.920 --> 0:00:34.159
<v Speaker 1>and we have unconfirmed reports this morning that a plane

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:37.320
<v Speaker 1>has crashed into one of the towers of the World

0:00:37.320 --> 0:00:40.800
<v Speaker 1>Trade Center. American Airlines Flight eleven crashed into the World

0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:45.479
<v Speaker 1>Trade Center's North tower. Minutes later, United Airlines Flight one

0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:49.000
<v Speaker 1>slammed into the Trade Center's South tower. We're gonna take

0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:52.400
<v Speaker 1>a look at videotape just moments ago of the second

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 1>plane hitting the World Trade Center. That is spectacular pictures.

0:00:57.640 --> 0:01:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Met two was a passenger plane. For HAPs some type

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:07.000
<v Speaker 1>of navigating system or some type of electronics would have

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:10.920
<v Speaker 1>put two planes, you know, the World Trade Center within.

0:01:11.720 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>It looks like about eighteen minutes of each other. Within

0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:18.160
<v Speaker 1>the hour, an American Airlines flight struck the Pentagon, the

0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:22.160
<v Speaker 1>United Airlines flight goes down near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, and both

0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:26.240
<v Speaker 1>World Trade Center towers collapsed. In just under two hours,

0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:32.040
<v Speaker 1>two thousand people were killed and some thousand more were injured.

0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Today we've had a national tragedy. Two airplanes have crashed

0:01:39.000 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 1>into the World Trade Center in an apparent terrorist attack

0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>on our country. I have spoken to the Vice President,

0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 1>to the Governor of New York, to the director of

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:55.320
<v Speaker 1>the FBI, and I've ordered that the full resources of

0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 1>the federal government go to help the victims and their families,

0:02:00.880 --> 0:02:05.640
<v Speaker 1>and and to conduct a full scale investigation to hunt

0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:10.280
<v Speaker 1>down and to find those folks who committed this act.

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Terrorism against our nation will not stand. I'm investigative journalist

0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Steve Gregory. The attacks of nine eleven forever changed to America.

0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:26.239
<v Speaker 1>It also marked the beginning of the War on terror,

0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:29.720
<v Speaker 1>with it the creation of new agencies like the Department

0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:34.359
<v Speaker 1>of Homeland Security and the Transportation Security Administration, which implemented

0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:38.160
<v Speaker 1>sweeping changes to how Americans would travel. Join me for

0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 1>nine eleven. Two decades later, an exploration of decisions made

0:02:42.040 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>to make Americans safer? Do airport checkpoints work as the

0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Patriot Act made us more secure? Did Americans even understand

0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.359
<v Speaker 1>the color coded terror alerts. We'll talk with those behind

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:56.040
<v Speaker 1>the scenes, those who were there in the inner sanctum

0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:59.960
<v Speaker 1>of agencies that made life changing decisions, and we'll attend

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.360
<v Speaker 1>to answer the question is America safer today than twenty

0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:05.799
<v Speaker 1>years ago? H
