"In hindsight, the last cultural moment of the nightly news broadcast’s social authority occurred on Sept. 11, 2001. In the immediate aftermath of that terroristic attack, we experienced the last turn of the classic anchorman."

More of our conversation with Steve Peck. Every year on 9/11 I think of Steve and the others who escaped, and think of those dealing with 9/11 illnesses and those we lost that day. May their memory be eternal.

Capt. Burlingame was from Lancaster

[Catherine Herridge @C__Herridge]

DISAPPOINTING:

Sad to learn the sister of Charles “Chic” Burlingame, one of the pilots murdered on 9/11, was turned away from the Pentagon Memorial this morning.

Apparently the area was already on lockdown.

Debra’s brother was the pilot of AA 77.

Navy CPT
Vietnam
Persian Gulf

There was a protracted fight in the cockpit before the hijackers took over the jet and slammed into the Pentagon.

He was vigilant and aware of a possible event like 9/11. It’s reflected in the harrowing flight recorder data.

No one fought harder than his sister Debra for justice.

But the 9/11 suspects at Guantanamo are still awaiting trial.

The 9/11 families are still fighting for accountability from Saudi Arabia in American courts.

Republican and Democratic administrations stood by while 9/11 family members died waiting
