Merav - My dissertation addressed similar issues. You may find some of my work useful. Selected articles are available off my home page, www.tedfriedman.com. If you're interested, I can email other chapters, as well.
Hi, I wanted to share a very cool resource with everyone. There is a comprehensive archive of news broadcasts from around the world for the days surrounding Sept 11. The collection is maintained by the Internet Archives, a non-profit group working to capture human communication online. They are also responsible for the Way Back Machine which presents the web as it was in prior years, and was announced on this list a couple weeks ago. The home page for the Sept 11 tv archives is at: http://client.alexa.com/tvarchive/html/ And the program listings are at: http://tvnews1.televisionarchive.org/prog An accompanying online collection of websites from that day is at http://september11.archive.org/ There are a variety of ways to view the clips -- by thumbnail etc -- and there is a mechanism for commenting on the clips fulfilling the digital library ability to connect people's thoughts and ideas. (those of you who know me, know I'll always throw in my pitch for digital libraries as communication tools and knowledge creating mechanisms!)

Absolutely fabulous site! Thank you for digitalized many of these archival materials! One day I'd like to see them in PDF or other format that would present them in their original format, page numbers and all. As an aside for the job hunters ... Cal Tech is looking for someone to work on the Einstein papers. Fluency of German and archival experience necessary. Rita Lauria Bill Stewart wrote:
