[edit] September 11 attacks
Removed the following text:
Sully was the first Australian journalist to cover the news of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. She was live on air when the news of the disaster came through and Ten's Late News was the first to broadcast the CNN footage to Australia.
This was done as my recollection was that SBS picked it up several minutes before any other station. I couldn't find any information on the topic one way or another. If someone can find a source for this then please add it back in, though I'm not entirely sure that it belongs as part of this topic. Lod 08:05, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
- Sandra Sulla was LIVE doing the late news when the attacks happend. She was given a piece of paper from a stage hand, and she read it out stating that the Wolrd Trade Centre had been attacked, and she would bring the viewers more news when they come in. Within 2 minutes, she said that they were crossing to New York for live feedings of what was occuring.
8Sandra was the first person to break the news as se was just concluding her bulletin, SBS had finished news production earlier that night.
Re: Sept. 11 coverage: Ten sourced many video providers for its live, breaking coverage on the night of September 11 from around 10:45PM Sydney time, not only CNN. Ten was around a half-hour ahead of Nine and Seven on rolling coverage, as I recall. The attacks occurred from 10:43pm Sydney time, as I recall. I flicked to 7 and 9, and they did not have continuous coverage for a while after. Ten went all night (along with all nets), with Ron Wilson on from 6:00am, and then on until 5:00pm (18 hours coverage), then Simpsons, as far as I remember.
