With the 20th anniversary of 9/11 coming up, I speak to Dean Rotbart, author of the book September Twelfth. The book concerns the story of the Wall Street Journal's staff (whose offices were right next to the World Trade Center and rendered unusable by 10am on 9/11), and how they worked together to get a September 12th edition of the paper out. We discuss the Pulitzer Prize-winning coverage, how the other US bureaus helped out with the next day's paper, and an amazing story of the last ever receipt given out at the World Trade Center.
