Today's TV coverage of five years later

by Bob Sassone, posted Sep 11th 2006 6:29AM

9/11As you know, today is the fifth annivesary of 9/11, and there will be a ton of coverage on all of the major networks today. Starting at 7, the morning shows on ABC, CBS, NBC and on cable will not only have several stories about the day, many of the channels will actually interrupt regular programming and show footage of their TV coverage on that day, how they broke the news, in real time as the events happened.

The History Channel will have several documentaries and news specials on 9/11 all day long as well. And all of the TV network web sites have special features about the day, including that footage of their programming that day (all free, I believe, though you have to register for CNN's Pipeline trial).

Some people won't want to watch any of this coverage, others will be fascinated by it.

It's still so hard to watch - even after 5 yrs. My 6yo son asked me why the city was so smoky. I had to change the channel and tell him it was just a movie. He's too young to lose his innocence.

Just wanted to clarify that you do *not* have to register for CNN Pipeline's free trial to view today's special coverage for 9/11.

I have to watch this coverage for work, and it's gutwrenching and heartbreaking. I remember the day so clearly.
