This what you get when corpoartions and their lust for profit above all else are deified and treated as if they are the reason the country exists. The feigned outrage is laughable.
Oh you want to play that game?
No, I think the real reason they ignored it was because it was just too offensive to the arabs living in the united states. How would they feel? We should be more sympathetic towards them.

Game?
WHAT game?
NBC exists to make a profit, if they thought showing Kardshian vomiting would increase their profit more than showing a 9/11 memorial then that's what they'd show.
This wasn't even something important like another staged wedding -- it was the mother's fake boobs that were so all-important to NBC -- and it's idiot viewers.

I think the bigger issue at hand is that the american people are dumb enough for a speculator to believe that would be more profitable.
It's time to move on .It has been 10 years,last year was enough.
Just like Pearl harbor it was a terrible tragedy..so we should forget all the people that died that day? This is what is the matter with us..we are becoming so anti american...yes five seconds for pause is too much. very sad.

they say "their affiliate in NYC showed the ceremony", what about the hundreds of Boston, Washington, and Los Angeles area residents that lost their lives.
In the NYC area at 8:30AM the local NBC station took over and showed the 9/11 ceremony live until it finished just before 12:30PM. It does this every year.
