most people simply couldn't believe that another plane had crashed, it was just too horrible and they may have thought that it was a police helicopter simply circling the buildings, there were loads
lay off her ok, 9/11 was shocking for everyone and some events were purely unbelievable
Sorry,but why are some people giving the newsreader a hard time? She wasn't at the site,she was simply reading what came up on the teleprompter in a studio thousands of miles away.Why does this make her the 'baddie' in this? In the minutes after the attack no-one would've had access to much detail which were filtering through as those involved were becoming increasingly aware of the events.She did her job,simple as that.
@MegaCrustyMuffin She only saw two sides of the building as shown and it looked like two holes to her. At 3:50 on the left face you can see some of the outer casings of the steel was off and above that, dark smoke billowing out which she mistook for a hole. Around the corner on the south face that we can't see there was an exit hole that the plane made. Or parts of the plane made.
I'm not defending this awful presenter, but this was taken from BBC World, which is a satellite channel only available OUTSIDE the UK. The domestic coverage of the same event was far, far better and more accurate.
@Vasilouxxx Oh dear, what have you got against the English? And what does that have to do with this?! I watched this occur live on the BBC, ITV and Channel 4 in the UK on 9/11 and all three channels handled the shocking content extremely well, considering tghe circumstances and the various theories being banded about at the time.
@michcar279 I know that you fuck tard, if you would of scrolled down and read my last comment you would realise why i wondered at first you sarcy prick
well they knew it was a result of a plane crash for the first tower before some of our own networks did. And they also were able to locate a correspondent at ground level which I believe none of our major networks had. They must not have been looking at the live feed while they were reporting for the second impact which is dumb. You would think they would've reviewed the feed pretty quick once the other tower caught fire.
She quite the idiot she says that the one plane caused both to go into flames when she saw live the second one hit and doesn't say it was 2 planes for like 4 minutes and double plane accident what a SHIT Reporter
bbc world service is not the same as the national news channel, at the time as you can see it wasnt even fully live, shes reading off an updating teleprompt not watching a live screen as cnn, abc etc reporters were and as the national bbc would have been doing
theres people never expected the second plane its easy for you to say i can't believe they missed it at the time its different also BBC have the right info as far as a passenger jet unlike some News channels in the US saying its was a cargo plane or privet
@melendes1966 I WAS A FUCKING KID THEN, DO YOU REALLY THINK I UNDERSTOOD WHAT HAPPENED THEN oh and i need a brain i think you need a brain! and btw i don't think its funny
Well, actually no there were plenty of fatalities... 295 Marsh employees and 60 contractors died just at that point AA 11 crashed. But this is the trouble with breaking news; info only drip feeds especially at times like this... RIP.
For the world's biggest news organisation I would have expected much more for covering the event which practically shaped the modern world. Who could possibly miss the second plane?
@jakechitty1 Don't be ashamed. I live less than 100 miles from the WTC and it took me some time to get my head around what had happened. It just goes to show how people react to something that is almost beyond imagining. The presenters here were looking right at what was happening yet couldn't recognize it for what it was. Among other things there was a lot of confusion and disbelief all around, that day.
I'm living in holland and that day we watched to the dutch news, bbc and the german channels, only the germans where looking to their own video i guess, because they directly said that they just saw a second plane flying in, like 10 sec after it happend, I guess the reporters where watching it, cause they where really chocked when that happend and directly stopped with their speech, like everybody at home they just watched and couldn't believe that that just happend live...
really,was it that long ago? i remember in year 5 of historic events when this happened. I squeezed something along the lines of 'terrorists bomb world trade centre''
i cannot believe how much we have progressed since i was a child =(

Here's the thing. Reporters in a studio may not be watching the feed. Which is what I assume is the case with this female anchor. My pops used to work for CBS in NY. The studio has green/blue screens behind, the feeds are rarely seen by the actual anchors.
@ChicagoCane100 The BBC is an impartial journalistic organisation. Without confirmation they are unable to claim that it is anything other than an accident, regardless of how obvious it may seem.
When this happened i was 8 and did not fully grip the severity of this event and watching it now ALWAYS gives me goosebumps,...may my full condolences go 2 every1 effected by this disaster and may all victims R.I.P
This is an American speaking and i lived through 9/11 and i have to day that it was like a living hell watching these innocent people dying at the hands of the sub-human terrorists. it truly was absolutely horrible :'(
Im an English 15 year old, and remember watching this exact broadcast. I was crying and yelling at the telly because they didnt even realise the 2nd plane hit when it was shown clearly on the T.V!! What a national embarresment!
@bestgrimbarianever No, the same thing happened over here in America. It's cool. I think it's because the reporters aren't looking at the footage the whole time, but the prompter or something.
@TheLaurenkent oh yeah i know that, its not the fact that theyre not lookin at the screen, its just the way she reports the whole thing, it is so bad :/ she is completely devoid of any emotion, and repeats herself over and over again. worst reporting ive ever seen to be honest.

@10:21 "A double plane accident" Really? Really? Still an accident. After seeing the second plane hit the second tower, and still calling it an accident, is beyond belief. I can honestly say, wherever she got her broadcast journalism degree, she should return it immediately. And never show her face in public again. Stupid cunt. What an embarrassment
they talk about the possibility that it was debris that may have caused the second building to be on fire when at 4:52 they can actually see the second plane impact
@TheFeebleKeeble She did actually falter there... when the second plane crash happened. I'm not sure she was allowed to divert from her script, but if she had been allowed to, I think she would have commented on it.
Even worse is the fact that after the 2nd plane hit, the stupid woman referred to it as a second 'accident'. These people are paid £100 000 per annum to talk nonsense. BBC is a state owned organisation so their wages come from the gullible British taxpayer.
Typically overly cautious politically correct broadcasting from the BBC. Not only do they miss clear footage of helicopters buzzing round and round the towers after the North Tower 1 was hit, but they go on to make the absurd claim that there are no helicopters several times. They also miss clear footage of the 2nd plane crashing into the south tower. Surely in a studio full of people someone must have been watching what they were broascasting. Attention to detail BBC!
Never seen this before (we don't get BBC world in the UK - thank God). What the hell was this idiot woman on? I think she must have been quietly fired after this - and a good thing too. Totally bloody hopeless. To manage to be a total global embarrassment in the middle of one of the biggest disasters of all time is quite an achievement.
I thought the BBC was highly professional 24/7 until I seen this crap! I've never watched "BBC world" or seen this woman before or since. Maybe this was just shown abroad locally on small staff salary budgets. This geek looked like she was ready for nothing more than politics and traffic info on her teleprompter.
I have to agree 'double plane accident'. The dumbest thing I have heard. Also why did no one tell her about the second plane hitting if she was too busy to see it herself
I don't understand all the hostility to the reporters. If you watch the other coverage (CNN, FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS) there was as much confused reporting and false information. The reporters that day got often conflicting, false and confusing reports. Remember when it was reported a car bomb exploded on the National Mall, and it was a small plane that hit the building? I personally applaud all the news agencies that day for their professionalism.
@julesjones423 yes, some people don't realize they are sitting infront of a camera and reading out reports from papers, they aren't commentating from the tv they are reporting. And if they happen to be be looking at a screen and see something like this happen live the last thing they do is panic and freak out on air because they will probably get the sack for un-professionalism
@Meda01 , Your welcome, Im sure like me you have heard some dumb things said from the media,but that is one of the most ridiculus commets I have ever heard.
She's reading a Teliprompter, it's not her fault. And even if it was her fault, she's human. We all have made mistakes one time or another in life. Give her a break =)
Sorry to say it but the BBC really dropped the ball on reporting. When the second plane hit you could hear people react in the studio and the woman even referenced it but they never continued to investigate or even look at their own footage, which clearly showed a second impact. Ugh. BBC, wtf? lol I feel let down.
@7.23 - dear god. one plane went through and hit the second tower?? did he really say that?? Jesus. Worst reporting ever. How did they not see the pictures??? Unreal.
In fairness,that news anchor is dreadful too......
5:37 "and it looks as if both buildings are on fire!" did you not see the giant plane that hit the second tower 10 seconds ago?
"it looks as if the first plane went through and the debris is affecting the other tower. at this time there are no signs of helocopters around the towers."
DID YOU NOT SEE THAT GIANT PLANT HIT THE SECOND TOWER.
and if you just look at your footage for once you'd see an occasional helicopter flying close to the tower. but you'd probably just report that it's giant bird.
God forgive my childish innocence. I was six when this happened, and they put this on in our school, and we all thought it was a film and got excited until a few of us realised it was something very very bad... one of my friends even shouted COOL! when the second plane hit. It's also a bit silly how they show the second plane hitting, and then they ignore it, then talk about it minutes later and replay it.
@The6thSimpson I came home (i was 8) and was sick of it because this was on every channel and they kept repaying the same footage over and over again.
@jk1153 that's a bizarre comment from an American, as you had a famously late entry to WW2. I think you'll find we delcared war on them as soon as they entered Poland, whereas you sat back and let them kill half of europe before you got involved
fuck you asshole. our jounalists may be absolute retards, but USA journalists aren't much better. just look at the abundance of them taking ages to register the second hit on channels like CBS. journalists tend to be inept idiots anyway. our soldiers on the hand are awesome.
@mrjimbeam2009 To be fair, this was BBC News 24, 2pm, before Freeveiw and before most people had Sky. She was probably only one step above the work experience kid. She'd have never expected to suddenly be in the middle of the biggest news story of a generation.
How did they not see the giant airliner coming in from the right side of the screen and hitting the tower? And they still called it an accident after TWO planes hit? Bad reporting
@senrat94 Simply because no one was looking for it. The second plane and explosion came as a huge shock, remember at this time the reports of the first plane were still unsubstantiated. They didn't realise that the crash was caught on camara.
The world was utterly surprised by this. The assuption that this was an accident was natural as the thought of someone purposefully crashing planes into a building was unthought of. Some networks suggested maybe a computer navigation fault was to blame.
This is not the BBC UK coverage, this is the BBC World coverage. Different presenter and information. It was covered by BBC News 24 and BBC Breakfast News in the UK with their usual presenting team. Just thought I would add that information.
Thick bastard reporters! i was ill and had a day off work the day this happened,i watched it unfold live from the first couple of minutes after the first plane hit...i watched it with 2 other people...we all knew what we saw as soon as it happened..infact my nephew said "whats that other plane doing?"..just before it hit! how come these "reporters" dont know what they see!? same with the sky news coverage too!...how much are they getting paid?!! terrible reporting!
Okay I'll admit I'm no expert and know nothhing on it but how does a plane hit top of one building and effect the middle of another that's the same size. That's basically what the guy said.
Unbelievable. The BBC. They saw the second plane hit and just ignored it. A few minutes later, one of the anchors suggest that the second building on fire could be the result of the first plane!! People in the newsroom don't look at the screen??
I wonder if God will forgive us for the wicked we have all done.

@TheFeebleKeeble She did actually falter there... when the second plane crash happened. I'm not sure she was allowed to divert from her script, but if she had been allowed to, I think she would have commented on it.

Even worse is the fact that after the 2nd plane hit, the stupid woman referred to it as a second 'accident'. These people are paid £100 000 per annum to talk nonsense. BBC is a state owned organisation so their wages come from the gullible British taxpayer.

The BBC isn't a state owned organisation, and the reporters wages come from people paying for a TV licence, not the tax payer's money. .

Typically overly cautious politically correct broadcasting from the BBC. Not only do they miss clear footage of helicopters buzzing round and round the towers after the North Tower 1 was hit, but they go on to make the absurd claim that there are no helicopters several times. They also miss clear footage of the 2nd plane crashing into the south tower. Surely in a studio full of people someone must have been watching what they were broascasting. Attention to detail BBC!

Never seen this before (we don't get BBC world in the UK - thank God). What the hell was this idiot woman on? I think she must have been quietly fired after this - and a good thing too. Totally bloody hopeless. To manage to be a total global embarrassment in the middle of one of the biggest disasters of all time is quite an achievement.

I thought the BBC was highly professional 24/7 until I seen this crap! I've never watched "BBC world" or seen this woman before or since. Maybe this was just shown abroad locally on small staff salary budgets. This geek looked like she was ready for nothing more than politics and traffic info on her teleprompter.

I have to agree 'double plane accident'. The dumbest thing I have heard. Also why did no one tell her about the second plane hitting if she was too busy to see it herself

j1991z 1 year ago
I don't understand all the hostility to the reporters. If you watch the other coverage (CNN, FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS) there was as much confused reporting and false information. The reporters that day got often conflicting, false and confusing reports. Remember when it was reported a car bomb exploded on the National Mall, and it was a small plane that hit the building? I personally applaud all the news agencies that day for their professionalism.
julesjones423 1 year ago
@julesjones423 yes, some people don't realize they are sitting infront of a camera and reading out reports from papers, they aren't commentating from the tv they are reporting. And if they happen to be be looking at a screen and see something like this happen live the last thing they do is panic and freak out on air because they will probably get the sack for un-professionalism

Sorry to say it but the BBC really dropped the ball on reporting. When the second plane hit you could hear people react in the studio and the woman even referenced it but they never continued to investigate or even look at their own footage, which clearly showed a second impact. Ugh. BBC, wtf? lol I feel let down.

5:37 "and it looks as if both buildings are on fire!" did you not see the giant plane that hit the second tower 10 seconds ago?
"it looks as if the first plane went through and the debris is affecting the other tower. at this time there are no signs of helocopters around the towers."
DID YOU NOT SEE THAT GIANT PLANT HIT THE SECOND TOWER.
and if you just look at your footage for once you'd see an occasional helicopter flying close to the tower. but you'd probably just report that it's giant bird.

God forgive my childish innocence. I was six when this happened, and they put this on in our school, and we all thought it was a film and got excited until a few of us realised it was something very very bad... one of my friends even shouted COOL! when the second plane hit. It's also a bit silly how they show the second plane hitting, and then they ignore it, then talk about it minutes later and replay it.

@The6thSimpson I came home (i was 8) and was sick of it because this was on every channel and they kept repaying the same footage over and over again.

@jk1153 that's a bizarre comment from an American, as you had a famously late entry to WW2. I think you'll find we delcared war on them as soon as they entered Poland, whereas you sat back and let them kill half of europe before you got involved

fuck you asshole. our jounalists may be absolute retards, but USA journalists aren't much better. just look at the abundance of them taking ages to register the second hit on channels like CBS. journalists tend to be inept idiots anyway. our soldiers on the hand are awesome.

@mrjimbeam2009 To be fair, this was BBC News 24, 2pm, before Freeveiw and before most people had Sky. She was probably only one step above the work experience kid. She'd have never expected to suddenly be in the middle of the biggest news story of a generation.

How did they not see the giant airliner coming in from the right side of the screen and hitting the tower? And they still called it an accident after TWO planes hit? Bad reporting
senrat94 1 year ago
@senrat94 Simply because no one was looking for it. The second plane and explosion came as a huge shock, remember at this time the reports of the first plane were still unsubstantiated. They didn't realise that the crash was caught on camara.
The world was utterly surprised by this. The assuption that this was an accident was natural as the thought of someone purposefully crashing planes into a building was unthought of. Some networks suggested maybe a computer navigation fault was to blame.

loool i can't believe they thought one of the planes went through the north tower and hit the south tower, what blind reporters.

This is not the BBC UK coverage, this is the BBC World coverage. Different presenter and information. It was covered by BBC News 24 and BBC Breakfast News in the UK with their usual presenting team. Just thought I would add that information.

Thick bastard reporters! i was ill and had a day off work the day this happened,i watched it unfold live from the first couple of minutes after the first plane hit...i watched it with 2 other people...we all knew what we saw as soon as it happened..infact my nephew said "whats that other plane doing?"..just before it hit! how come these "reporters" dont know what they see!? same with the sky news coverage too!...how much are they getting paid?!! terrible reporting!

Okay I'll admit I'm no expert and know nothhing on it but how does a plane hit top of one building and effect the middle of another that's the same size. That's basically what the guy said.
