CNN archivist don't think BBC could loose tapes
We received an interesting e mail from a CNN archivist in Atlanta who stated their utter disbelief at the notion that BBC has lost any of their 9/11 archives.
"I'm an archivist with the CNN News Library in Atlanta, and I can tell you with absolute certainty, the mere idea that news agencies such as ours would "misplace" any airchecks from 9/11 is preposterous. CNN has these tapes locked away from all the others. People like myself, who normally would have access to any tapes in our library, must ask special permission in order to view airchecks from that day. Multiple tapes would have been recording their broadcast that day, and there are also private agencies that record all broadcasts from all channels - constantly - in the event that a news agency missed something or needs something. They don't just have one copy... they have several. It's standard procedure, and as soon as the second plane hit, they would start recording several copies on other tapes machines all day long.
The only information they need to give out is the source of the collapse claim. No one is saying the BBC is "part of the conspiracy," we're saying that someone gave that reporter the information ahead of time. The source of that information is the only thing they can reveal that would be meaningful."

Google 911 video archive and follow through all the links to access the video clips ; 9/10 times you will find it is unavailable/error message or it will not play, particularily if it is original unedited footage from that day.
The BBC COCKUP footage is just the tip of the iceberg. It was a depressingly crude cover-up and much video evidence attests to this. Has Porter thrown his chips in with the neocons?

"Preposterous." That's the word, all right. And while all that's been said by outsiders is that maybe they were given this information ahead of time, their abrupt (and unlikely) "loss" of these tapes, well, how else could one interpret this? A "false confession?" Come on. Expect an "OK, OK, WE DID IT" pretty soon if they're this psychotically jumpy, huh? Film at 11, unless BBC loses it (the tape, that is, not their minds, although that's also a possibility here today).
