CNN.com to replay 9/11 attacks coverage
Posted: Sun Sep 10, 2006 10:36 pm
My daughter told me about this and I had hoped it would air on CNN, via cable or satellite. I see it's on the Internet only. I will watch what I can, before heading off to work. I had hoped to record it, if it was on TV. Does anyone know if this is the first time CNN is reairing actual footage, as events unfolded on 9/11? Just curious. I also just wanted to mention this to anyone who might be interested iin watching. No matter what I will cry tomorrow, with or without seeing footage of that tragic day.

CNN.com to Replay 9/11 Attacks Coverage
Aug 25 2:12 PM US/Eastern
CNN will mark the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks by replaying on the Internet the cable network's coverage of that day's events.
Viewers can watch how events unfolded starting at 8:30 a.m., minutes before the first reports of an airplane hitting the World Trade Center. The feed will run in real time, as the network showed it five years ago, until midnight.
For the day, CNN will make its online video service, CNN Pipeline, available for free. Normally, viewers pay $2.95 a month or $24.95 a year for four separate video feeds.
Online viewers will be able to watch live reports of memorial services through one of the feeds. So that viewers won't accidentally stumble upon graphic footage from 2001, the replay feed will be covered with a notice instructing users to click only if they want to watch.
"Our users may choose to view the stream of coverage from Sept. 11, or live coverage of memorial services at Ground Zero, or they may click through the numerous interactive elements on the site," said David Payne, senior vice president and general manager of CNN.com. "They have the power to determine the best way for them to remember the anniversary."
CNN is a unit of Time Warner Inc.
