FOX News Media will honor the 25th anniversary of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on America with extensive multiplatform special programming, the company announced on Thursday.
On the somber anniversary, and in the days leading up to it, Fox News personalities and correspondents will present commemorative packages and interviews while reporting live from locations across New York, Washington, D.C., and Pennsylvania.
“FOX & Friends” will spend the week of Sept. 7 broadcasting live from several locations tied to the horrific day. Co-host Steve Doocy, who was broadcasting live alongside co-host Brian Kilmeade on the morning of the attacks in 2001, will host the program’s flagship “Breakfast with Friends” series live from the historic O’Hara’s Pub in New York City just two blocks from Ground Zero.

The show will also feature the Steel Across America tour — a historic coast-to-coast campaign honoring those who sacrificed their lives on 9/11 — arriving at the White House.
Doocy will broadcast live from Shanksville, Pennsylvania, the crash site of United Airlines Flight 93, on Thursday.
On Friday, Fox News Channel’s special coverage will commence with “FOX & Friends” co-hosts Kilmeade, Ainsley Earhardt and Lawrence Jones broadcasting live from the Hyatt House in Jersey City, overlooking the New York City skyline. Doocy will contribute live from Ground Zero.

The reading of the victims’ names from the National September 11 Memorial & Museum is also expected to air during “America’s Newsroom.”
