Description of podcast:

	This podcast covers the tragedy of  9-11 and all the changes that the government has put into place to ensure that nothing similar to 9-11 ever happens again. 9-11 was one of the worst terrorist attacks we have had in our history; killing close to over 3,000 people. This podcast tells the story of 9-11 and a majority of the podcast is dedicated to news reports that give a good description of the attack followed with an interview were you get the differences of security prior to 9-11 compared to how airport security is today. I include a series of news clippings to allow my audience to connect with the material that my podcast was based off of. The news clippings give some insight to what was going on and how 9-11 took place. They also help the audience feel the emotions of what that day entailed and why the importance of airport security has risen since then. I also included an interview with a “lady from TSA” to help further explain the difference in airport security from how strict it was back then to how strict it is today from the tragic influence of 9-11. In the interview I ask her a series of specific questions regarding airport security. You can tell the differences of security from before 9-11 and how it changed after 9-11 there has been many changes in security such as what can you bring through carry on and how they would examine your checked bags. I include an array of news reports so you can get a better feel for how 9-11 took place and what everyone was initially thinking. No one was quite sure what was happening after the initial plane crash but once there were other planes that got hijacked it was clear this was a threat to the united states from some outside terrorist group.
