It's interesting how little the broadcasts of other nations changed whereas American news just replayed 9/11 footage time and time again. The CCTV played a soap opera and BBC was focused on mad cow's disease. It also appears that NHK was much more focused on a typhoon in Hokkaido.

The creators of this website unfortunately did not consider that BBC broadcasts in British time. You have to jump to 1:59 PM (= 8:59 AM NYC time) for the beginning of the BBC coverage.

I personally vividly remember watching the news on BBC World and saw at least one of the towers collapse on live TV. You don't really forget something like that.
