The attack on the World Trade Center triggered shut-downs across the nation. Airports,
stock exchanges -- and even broadcasts from the web site The Naked News.
Americans observed a variety of responses -- whether attending prayer vigils or
worshipping at the church of televised news. But one bastion of alternative newscasting
took a different tack.
"The civilized world was shocked today by the multiple acts of terrorism perpetrated on
the United States," reported Naked News anchor Victoria Sinclair -- clad entirely in
black.
In a special video announcement, Sinclair explained why the site's daily strip-tease
newscast would not be presented. "We at The Naked News grieve over the loss of innocent
lives and are all moved by the magnititude of the tragedy. So much so that we feel it
appropriate to direct you to your televisions and radios in this time of crisis."
