The phone rang in the Sports Tonight area & I was one of the few left in the News Room. @shortblack_ producer instinctively told me this was serious & to record everything. I remember staff in the News Exchange area looked ashen faced as the vision beamed in from New York. Sandra was incredibly good ad-libbing over the frightening live pics. The almost empty News Room began to get busy again as key staff came back in - some of the best journos I know. Our Chief of Staff Jason Morrison (Who I'd worked with at 2GB) asked me if I felt across all the vision to write a 5 mins snapshot story on what had unfolded for a special breakfast bulletin they were prepping. I wrote & voiced it working until sun up BUT I was thousands of k's away in a Sydney TV station. It wasn't until a few years ago, when I took my family there, that I truly understood the enormity & the gravity of that day. I hope our visit & the unforgettable stories told by the first responder tour guides helped my kids appreciate the importance of peace in our world. Thinking of those beautiful innocent souls who were just going about life in a captivating, vibrant city that lost their lives that day (& those at the Pentagon & in Pennsylvania) 🕊#neverforget"".
