23 Years ago today, our country was viciously attacked in a way we never thought could happen. They hit us at our most vulnerable. The New York City skyline changed forever, and we Americans lost our innocence.
The 9/11 attacks were documented in more detail than any event in American history. There is video available on YouTube, from everything from early smartphone videos to amateur photographers, to every television station and network on the air at the time. Radio produced thousands of hours of coverage, and some of that is archived on this website.
Airchexx.com Remembers 9/11. The audio from our custom presentation was also aired on 600 WREC Memphis and several other News/Talk AM stations around the country.
Which brings us to another radio station’s productions.
Contributor Julius May donated this recording of a 30 minute special aired on the one year anniversary of the 9/11/01 terrorist attacks upon the World Trade Center in New York City. The recording speaks for itself in terms of emotions, which still ran high one year later.
Produced locally by KYW, this actually aired on September 9, 2002, which happened to be a Monday, therefore they used that as a basis for the one year anniversary.
Some parental guidance is suggested. Please, educate your children as to what happened. This is a good tool – no political pandering here, no sides taken, no speculation on conspiracies. Just the facts, timeline, and actual audio from 9/11. Facts don’t lie, and neither does history recorded live.
