CBS News and Stations will deliver in-depth, multiplatform coverage to mark the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, with poignant reporting and storytelling on the day that forever changed America. Leading up to and on Sept. 11, CBS News anchors and correspondents will report from Ground Zero in New York City; the Pentagon; the site of the crash of Flight 93 near Shanksville, Penn.; and they will provide the latest reporting on Afghanistan, as chaos and conflict ensues there after the U.S. troop withdrawal. CBS News' coverage will include unique insight from the team of CBS News journalists who reported on 9/11, as the country mourned and lived through the aftershock of the attacks, and extensively covered the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

CBS News broadcasts and platforms, including a CBS News Special Report on the morning of Saturday, Sept. 11; CBSN, CBS News' 24/7 streaming news service; 60 MINUTES; the CBS EVENING NEWS with NORAH O'DONNELL; CBS MORNINGS; CBS THIS MORNING: SATURDAY; CBS SUNDAY MORNING; FACE THE NATION; the CBS WEEKEND NEWS; CBS News Radio; the CBS News Polling Unit; and CBS Newspath will deliver original reporting around the anniversary.

On Thursday, Sept. 9, Paramount+, the streaming service from ViacomCBS, will stream THE 26th STREET GARAGE: THE FBI'S UNTOLD STORY. Narrated by critically acclaimed actor Tom Selleck, who plays New York's police commissioner on CBS' long-running drama BLUE BLOODS, THE 26th STREET GARAGE: THE FBI'S UNTOLD STORY features the story of how, in the desperate moments after the 9/11 attacks, the FBI was forced to evacuate its New York headquarters, and with no resources transformed its parking garage into a new command center. There, the agents tackled disturbing questions, such as: Could the attacks have been prevented? But within hours, from the 26th Street garage, agents launched the FBI's most complex and important investigation in U.S. history. In the days that followed, they rewrote the rules for counter-terrorism operations forever.

On Friday, Sept. 10, CBS News will present a two-hour primetime documentary special, THE CIA: RACE AGAINST TIME - THE TRUE STORY OF THE CIA AND 9/11, at 8:00 PM, ET, on the CBS Television Network. The special will feature interviews from the top officials and elite operatives inside the CIA, who give haunting first-person accounts of their efforts to warn the United States about the potential of a cataclysmic attack orchestrated by Osama bin Laden. Sept. 11, 2001 marked the greatest failure in the history of the nation's premiere spy agency, but also sparked what became its greatest success, helping find Bin Laden. For the spies inside the CIA, it was a race against time to get Bin Laden, and that race began long before 9/11 and ended long after. Emerging from the top-secret corridors of Langley and covert operations in faraway places, they come to tell their story - many for the first time.

On Saturday, Sept. 11, CBS News and Stations will deliver comprehensive coverage of ceremonies across the nation marking the solemn day. CBS EVENING NEWS anchor and managing editor Norah O'Donnell will anchor a live CBS News Special Report, 9/11: 20 YEARS LATER, beginning at 8:30 AM, ET, from Ground Zero. She will be joined by CBS News chief political analyst and senior national correspondent John Dickerson in lower Manhattan; national security correspondent David Martin from the Pentagon; congressional correspondent Nikole Killion in Shanksville, Penn.; correspondent Mola Lenghi from a Midtown New York City fire station that suffered some of the greatest losses on 9/11; and senior foreign correspondent Charlie D'Agata reporting from South Asia on the latest Afghanistan news.

In addition to coverage of the memorials taking place across the country, the CBS News Special Report will feature conversations with survivors, heroes and family members of those who died. Mark Tillman, who piloted President Bush on Air Force One on 9/11, will be interviewed on the special. CBS News national security contributor and host of the INTELLIGENCE MATTERS podcast Michael Morell will provide analysis; Morell is the former CIA acting and deputy director and intelligence briefer to President George W. Bush.

CBS News' division-wide coverage will also feature reporting from CBS News senior foreign correspondent Holly Williams in Saudi Arabia and senior investigative correspondent Catherine Herridge from Guantanamo Bay, where hearings will be underway for some of the suspected masterminds behind the attacks on 9/11; CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett, who was traveling with President Bush that day; FACE THE NATION moderator Margaret Brennan; chief justice and homeland security correspondent Jeff Pegues; and CBS News chief White House correspondent Nancy Cordes, who will also contribute to the Network's coverage on all platforms.

A new CBS News poll will show how the nation sees the lasting effects of 9/11 across so many aspects of American life today and Americans' assessment of the war on terror. The CBS News Polling Unit will also offer historical context from two decades of CBS News polling since the attacks.

CBSN will begin its special coverage by airing segments in each of CBSN's dayparts ahead of the anniversary. On Saturday, Sept. 11, CBSN will simulcast the Network's special report at 8:30 AM, ET, followed by CBSN anchor Lana Zak anchoring the day's continuing coverage. CBSN will also offer a second live stream of 9/11 footage from 20 years ago.

CBSN will also stream the Network's primetime documentary, THE CIA: RACE AGAINST TIME: THE TRUE STORY OF THE CIA AND 9/11, on Saturday. CBSN is available at cbsnews.com and on the CBS News app for mobile and connected TV devices.

On Sunday, Sept. 12, 60 MINUTES' 54th season premiere will be dedicated to the heroism of 9/11. In this moving hour, many of the FDNY brass who were at Ground Zero describe to Scott Pelley the bravery that led 343 of their comrades to their deaths 20 years ago.

On Friday, Sept. 10, WCBS-TV in New York City will originate all of its newscasts from a location near Ground Zero, with coverage also streaming live on CBSN New York. That evening, WCBS will present a one-hour special, NEVER FORGOTTEN 9/11: 20 YEARS LATER, at 7:00 PM, ET, on WCBS and CBSN New York; and at 8:00 PM, ET, on WLNY-TV.

WCBS-TV in New York City will offer comprehensive coverage including a live special report on Saturday, Sept. 11 beginning at 8:25 AM, ET, anchored by Chris Wragge and Mary Calvi from Ground Zero. The special will include coverage of the reading of victims' names at the World Trade Center's memorial plaza and interviews with survivors, victims' family members and New York officials.
