Linking sloppy journalism to a plot has always been a ridiculous stretch. If you had planned this, why would you telegraph what was about to happen? Such planning would try to minimize discovery, not complicate issues and make things more risky for the plotters. You would have no reason to tell anyone what was about to happen. Everyone would know soon enough, even if broadcasters misunderstood their feeds and tried to scoop the competition without fact checking.
The simplest plot would be to let the aircraft strike their targets. All proposed goals could be accomplished whether the buildings collapsed or not, the hijackers would be dead, and the event could be explained as "incompetence at the highest levels of government." This last is eminently believeable by the public, especially with the track record of Bush administrations.
I have always wondered this as well... if it was slated to happen, why would a report be distributed in advance? Wouldn't that just be unnecessary room for error? Anyone have thoughts on this?
You may say that the goyim will rise upon us, arms in hand, if they guess what is going on before the time comes; but in the West we have against this a manoeuvre of such appalling terror that the very stoutest hearts quail - the undergrounds, metropolitains, those subterranean corridors which, before the time comes, will be driven under all the capitals and from whence those capitals will be blown into the air with all their organizations and archives.
The second secret requisite for the success of our government is comprised in the following: To multiply to such an extent national failings, habits, passions, conditions of civil life, that it will be impossible for anyone to know where he is in the resulting chaos, so that the people in consequence will fail to understand one another. This measure will also serve us in another way, namely, to sow discord in all parties, to dislocate all collective forces which are still unwilling to submit to us, and to discourage any kind of personal initiative which might in any degree hinder our affair. There is nothing more dangerous than personal initiative; if it has genius behind it, such initiative can do more than can be done by millions of people among whom we have sown discord. We must so direct the education of the goyim communities that whenever they come upon a matter requiring initiative they may drop their hands in despairing impotence. The strain which results from freedom of action saps the forces when it meets with the freedom of another. From this collision arise grave moral shocks, disenchantments, failures.
By all these means we shall so wear down the GOYIM that they will be compelled to offer us the international power of a nature that by its position will enable us without any violence gradually to absorb all the State forces of the world and to form a Super-Government. In place of the rulers of to-day we shall set up a bogey which will be called the Super-Government Administration. Its hands will reach out in all directions like nippers and its organization will be of such colossal dimensions that it cannot fail to subdue all the nations of the world.
Yeah, you're right...these folks are just as fallible as the rest of us. It was a mistake, and the take home lesson is indeed that all the media are in on it.

All the media??
According to the truthers hundreds of thousands of people are 'in on it'.
All the NYC fire fighters are in on it and agreed to coverup the murder of there co workers.
All the NYC police for the same reasons.
All of Congress past and present.
All of the worlds physics professors.
All of the worlds HS Science and physics teachers.
All of the worlds demolition experts.
All of the worlds pilots who know planes can't manuver like that.
And the list goes on.
Except for a handfull of backyard know it alls on a few websites.

As to the reporter.
Could it be that she was in front of a green board with a delayed video being superimposed. And the news outlet didn’t want their viewers to find out they didn’t really have a reporter ‘on the scene’?

you think that we believe that ALL of those people are covering up? wow, i did not know that about myself, interesting....
That is really of no consequence. The BBC still reported it has having collapsed 20 minutes before it actually collapsed.
They didn't report that it was in danger of collapsing, they reported that it had actually collapsed!!

And your thoughts on the OP?
Can you find a rational explanation for a broadcaster reporting that a building had collapsed a full 20 minutes before it actually collapsed?

I already told you. 2 other WTC buildings had already collapsed. There was precedent. It could have easily been a mistake. I bet there were other things reported that day which didn't even happen, because information got mixed up. But those are ignored because they weren't "mysterious portents into the future."
There's nothing here of substance because nothing can be proven, and there is a reasonable explanation as to why it may have been a mistake. Focusing on these circumstantial pieces of evidence does not help the 9/11 truth movement in any way, it just gives debunkers yet another loophole to use to defeat you.

Do you think that if "TPTB" were capable of orchestrating the biggest fraud in the history of mankind, one that pushes the very limits of the imagination, they would announce the fall of a building in advance? Do you honestly believe that could happen under such circumstances?

Why, are TPTB omnipotent and infallible in your world?
