Isn't corporate media lucky that the two planes that crashed into the WTC were 18 minutes apart. Otherwise how would they have had all those cameras in position to capture those dramatic photos? I'm sure every 13 year old boy fed on a diet of action movies is jumping up and down in their seats at the cool effect.
