Thirty minutes or so after the towers were hit, the news network was reporting how bad Bin Laden was. Saying he was a wealthy and powerful man. If this was known, how come it wasn't prevented

You act like Bin Laden was an unknown prior to 9/11. He was not. For years, Bin Laden had been known as a terrorist leader and that he had money. It wasnt a secret at all. As soon as I heard about the events of that morning (I was at work) I figured it was Bin Laden, I didnt need the media to suggest it. As to why it wasnt prevented....When you have someone determined to attack you, and willing to take the time to study you and your weaknesses or vulnerabilities, its hard to prevent attacks.
Funny how as soon as a the second plane hit the media stated it was a terrorist attcak but even at the end of the day the Department of Defense was calling it an alleged terrorist attack. The media must have more resources then the DOD.

No. They're making a hard case, people on the street just offering guesses. they probably guessed bin Laden too, unless they'd seen enough from theor perch to suspect otherwise. We can just say what we're thinking, they have to be more cautious.
In fact they're so cautious they still haven't finalized their case, right?
So your trying to say the media and people on the street knew more about what was going on then the DOD, FBI and other government sources.
I think you just proved his point....
If you mean we still have not seen an FBI or NTSb report on any of the crach site crime scenes then yes its still not finalized.

This seems to be one of your hobby horses. Personally Im still waiting to hear why you are entitled to see those reports.
