As the nation marks 25 years since the September 11 terrorist attacks, major television networks are presenting a range of programming designed to honor and remember the tragedy. These offerings span live events, documentaries, and in-depth investigations that explore different facets of that historic day and its aftermath.
ABC is delivering multiple commemorative broadcasts, including a live special from the Tribute in Light installation at Ground Zero in New York City at 8 p.m. ET on September 11. The network is also airing an encore presentation of “9/11: United We Stand – 25 Years Later,” a two-hour program hosted by Michael Strahan that examines how Americans found healing through sports, music, theater, and comedy. History Channel is premiering “102 Minutes Inside the Towers,” a documentary focusing on the events within the twin towers during the time span between both plane impacts.
Additional coverage includes CBS’s “Daughters of 9/11,” which shares the personal stories of two women who lost their fathers and spent decades seeking justice, and National Geographic’s “9/11 Reunited,” which reunites individuals who formed meaningful connections following the attacks. MLB Network will air “When America Took the Field,” exploring baseball’s role in the nation’s recovery, while Fox News plans comprehensive coverage throughout the day across its various platforms and programs.
Viewers can access most of these specials through streaming services including Disney+, Hulu, DirecTV, and Fubo, with several options available both live and on demand.
