Exposed to a threat unforeseen to
their nature, the United States confronted its biggest fear ever presented.
Primarily unknown to the public but rather speculated as various unknown
conspiracies, the objects that collided into the two-world trade center
buildings wreaked havoc on the streets of New York city. This only lead to the
break of desperation and missing spaced needed to be filled which ultimately
lead to the outbreak of the situation.
From senseless “sonic booms” to
more realistic possibilities such as a terrorist attack, the race to understand
the horrific aspect of the situation absorbed the public. Yet by nature, when
panic strikes absurd reasoning tends to kick in which concludes in more
questions to be answered, and that was one of the problems that struck the day
of September 11th.
September 11th marked a
day to a new beginning for many. Personally this event was no more than a wide
spread media event not never clearly captured me due to my age and lack of
awareness of the situations going on. Having seen the video footage and live
reactions of everyone gave me a fuller picture of the emptiness that filled
everyone that day. The lack of knowledge yet the race to understand the situation
rose a environment of hysteria for all.
When looking back at how things
were handled, I personally would pin down the media as the flawed source, which
created the environment for all. Regardless of the fact that the world should
know what the situation is, the media shouldn’t be ranting off with
speculations and absurd reasoning, causing disturbance to the public, which was
clearly already place.
In situation as such where nothing
but oblivion is present, only the right answered should be spoken and
speculations left to ones own mind.
