"Item 245: Breaking News." NYMag.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 10 Mar. 2015
"The posts can be very disturbing to read, since they so vividly replicate the raw, chaotic state of mind of New Yorkers trying to wrestle with the events of the day." This somewhat article shows the public quoted text of people's immediate reaction to the events occurring that day, these reactions coming from tapped phone lines, online chatrooms, website posts and many more. There is a large amount of pages showing just comments of New Yorkers who expressed their reactions literally as the attack was happening from 8:47 AM to 10:46 AM of the same day. Although the reactions were being posted so fast that day, creating a sense of confusion in the citizens of New York as they browsed the internet, the NYMag says that "they captured with moving precision the way people worked together, even in the midst of great confusion, to trade information and offer support in moments when no one knew what was going to happen next. This way of showing peoples reactions is completely different to any other media post on 9/11 because it quotes word for word what people were saying during the attack. This is the most "accurate" way of displaying reaction because none of it is edited or gone through editors in newspapers or well known websites. It is plain and raw reactions that came from everyday New Yorkers on the day of the attack and all of them have a sense of shock and confusion to them. Comments go from one word all the way to many sentences but they all share that sense of shock in them and everyone knew they were feeling the same thing on the day of the attack. The first comment being, "A PLANE JUST HIT THE WORLD TRADE CENTER", from Stacy Horn is instantly followed up by many similar comments with the same feel to their reaction. As said before, these reactions are raw and unedited and on a personal level feel that it is the best way to see how people felt on the day of the attack because it does not express the aftermath but rather exactly what was happening during the attack.
