911DA Story: Story

On the day of September 11 th 2001 I was sitting in class at our local college. Being a radio/television major my class mates and I were in the televesion station that the college has. What I remember the most vivid was when my father came in and explained in great detail what was going on. Instatly my father suggested to the teacher that we should be going on air with the breaking information. After that we spent the rest of the day and most of the night on air broadcasting the breaking news of the day. As hard as it was we kept replaying the scenes of the planes hitting the towers and the other information as we heard it and we also had the interviews from around campus.
