9/11: The Day America Changed | Reporting History from New York and Utah
from KSL News Daily
Twenty-five years ago, the world watched in horror as coordinated terrorist attacks on the United States claimed nearly 3,000 lives and forever changed the nation. On this special September 11th edition of KSL News Daily, host Maria Shilaos looks back at the events of 9/11 through the eyes of the journalists who brought the story to listeners in real time. Jeff Caplan was working in New York City at WCBS as the attacks unfolded. He joins the show to share what it was like covering one of the most significant days in American history from just miles away from Ground Zero. Then, Doug Wright reflects on how the KSL Radio team responded that morning in Salt Lake City, as Utahns turned to local news for updates, answers, and reassurance during a day of uncertainty. Plus, the three things you need to know today: childcare advocates warn hundreds of Utah families could lose assistance, a Tremonton man is ordered to stand trial in the killing of two police officers, and the state redirects funding at technical colleges toward programs with stronger job prospects. And....The Salt Lake Greek Festival celebrates its 50th year.
