World25 years ago, Tom Brokaw anchors NBC News’ 9/11 Special Report

Twenty-five years ago, Tom Brokaw anchored an NBC News Special Report on September 11, 2001, after terrorists hijacked four commercial planes and coordinated attacks on targets in the United States. Two hit the World Trade Center towers, one struck the Pentagon, and another crashed in a Shanksville, Pennsylvania, field after passengers and crew fought back, killing nearly 3,000 people.
