NewsTalkRadio WABC AM 77, and WJLA 7 (both ABC) as Sept. 11 Happened. 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM. The timing leaves some space so skip to 1:14 so you can start the experience. 1:15 Good Morning America interviews a veterinarian from London via satellite about prolonging the life of pets. 5:00 GMA and ABC 7 shows how the weather was nationally and around DC on that fateful day. GMA's Diane Sawyer then talks to an author, commercials, and Charles Gibson does an interview with Sarah The Duchess of York, who's traveling to a Wisconsin county to help them overcome weight problems. 16:46 First crash 17:09 The tape for WABC 77 starts. It's the Curtis and Kuby Show (hosted by Curtis Sliwa and trial attorney Ron Kuby). They were discussing various absurd criminal stories and reports. 18:28 ABC breaks for commercial while WABC airs traffic reports prior to the mayhem. 19:20 WABC's local current conditions for NYC on that day via The Weather Channel. 19:55 WABC breaks for commercial. 20:55 WABC returns with breaking news of the attack before GMA, who returned at 21:05 with the breaking news. 22:31 WABC Commercial Break 2. 24:33 Curtis and Ron returns.

It was the last commercial before the station decided on continuous coverage. 30:12 ABC News overrides the show and covers it live for a while.

Not only can you see the second plane clearly from ABC's POV, but on the radio, the explosion from the impact was audible over the phone after a delay. 41:10 WABC goes back to Curtis and Ron.
