Lol it's hard to convey just how bad TV was after 9/11 for quite awhile. Everything was over the top sad. Also while on the topic I'm pretty sure if I recall correctly for the entire day of 9/11 every single network besides kids shows and maybe a few others like weather all were showing 9/11 coverage. You literally couldn't find a channel not rebroadcasting the news coverage besides those, it was wild.
:10000-com: agree, it genuinely has caused so many problems. People were fucking broken, their illusion of being the all powerful greatest country on earff was mortally wounded. Blood lust was expected. Patriotism was likely never higher and many people never reflected on everything and remained the same
