I'd venture a guess that we also scooped everyone on 9/11 as well.
Good to see someone is noticing.

FR also scooped the world press on the 7.9 Alaska earthquake. It's quite a thing JR created.

I'd venture a guess that we also scooped everyone on 9/11 as well. That was a thread that I'll always remember. With Freepers watching all networks and local channels, listening to radio and Freepers there in NY, it was the most up to the minute news available. Drudge received too many hits, if you recall, and crashed. This was the place to be and why it is always the first place I go when I want up to the minute news.

I saved those threads - at 9:08, a prescient Freeper predicted Osama Bin Laden was the culprit. They are amazing threads. FR is the best news source on the net. I didn't see much of that tragedy on TV, because I was glued to FR - it was a much faster source than anywhere else.
