The one thing that I found to be curious was one of the main anchormen that I don't recall now (Rather, Brokaw?)said in breathless tones "we have just heard that the North (south?) Tower has fallen!" Then he looks at the monitors and says - well, obviously the tower has not fallen. Then, about 2 minutes later (longer than a technical delay) the tower DOES fall. I've always wondered about that.
Of course, typing it now I realize that the first note may have had actually said something like "they are evacuating people from the area because the North Tower is in risk of collapse and the anchor got excited and confused.
