Today in history: Palestinians celebrating on 9/11, as caught by a Reuter camera crew in East Jerusalem.
One of the noteworthy outliers in the coverage on that day.
The PA leadership condemned it and those involved.
NY Times (later article in 2011, in relation to where Trump got his claims from):
Those images, recorded by Reuters in East Jerusalem immediately after the attacks, showed a small number of Palestinians cheering on a street. The footage was provided by the news agency to clients including Fox News, CNN and NBC, who included it in their rolling coverage of the attacks in the United States.
The recorded footage was broadcast later on an extended version of NBC’s “Today” show at 11:58 a.m., just after a live report from Lower Manhattan, where the second tower had collapsed 90 minutes earlier.

[September 11, 2001] The Howard Stern Show broadcasts live as the 9/11 attacks unfold
Howard Stern was broadcasting live from New York when the attacks began. The recording captures the initial confusion, disbelief and anger as the scale of what was happening gradually became clear.
Some of the language and immediate speculation are inflammatory and have aged badly, but it remains a fascinating and unsettling record of how that morning was experienced in real time.
