FOX News Media announces special coverage of the 20th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The week long event will culminate Friday September 10 and Sunday September 11. Furthermore, expect themed packages and relevant guest interviews.
Coverage will kickoff Sunday, September 5 at 10 PM/ET with Bill Hemmer’s Lost Calls of 9/11 Hemmer will spotlight the story of a Houston man who purchased a piece of used computer equipment. The man didn’t know that it contained 103 never-heard-before calls. Furthermore, the calls are from a trading room floor across the street from the World Trade Center on the morning of September 11th, 2001.
Here’s the line-up for September 10:
- FNC will begin the day with a special edition of FOX & Friends (Weekdays, 6-9 AM/ET). Pete Hegseth, a former infantry Captain in the Army National Guard, will offer contributions on the ground live from lower Manhattan at a location overlooking the National September 11th Memorial at Ground Zero.

On Saturday, September 11, FNC will air moments of silence corresponding to the times of the attacks 20 years ago. Additionally, FOX & Friends Weekend will air 6-10 AM/ET.
