One of the things that I remember about 9&#x2F;11 was that, even though news outlets had largely come online, websites struggled under the stress of everyone hitting them constantly trying to get updates.<p>I remember in particular that the New York Times dumbed down their home page to basically be a bulleted list summary of facts as well as they were known at the time (unfortunately, the web archive doesn&#x27;t seem to have a copy during the morning of 9&#x2F;11&#x2F;2001). And some of those facts were wrong -- a rumor that persisted much longer than others was that there had been a car bomb at the State Dept, but there was a lot of confusion, as well as uncertainty and incredulity about what the truth was.<p>So, anyway, I like this idea, including the &quot;fog of war&quot; that existed particularly with these events. I don&#x27;t know what you already have planned, but it would be neat to show both conflicting information in real-time as well as attributing sources (e.g. &quot;CNN is reporting that ...&quot;).<p>Also, another fun event from those years where news outlets screwed everything up would be the 2000 presidential election.
