I don't recall which network it was. I'm thinking that Dan Rather was the newscaster that I had flipped to for a few minutes that day.

But - they were showing the live camera of the two towers burning and the guy (Rather?) gets a bulletin handed to him and says something like "we have a report that one of the towers has collapsed....um...but, obviously that is not true as we can see from our live camera's that they are standing." It was quite awhile (several minutes) before the camera's showed the first tower falling.

I've always wondered about that. Probably the camera wasn't as "live" as he thought. But I know it was longer than the standard few seconds delay to delete a cuss-word or something.
