The Longest Day
CBS News Producer Kia Baskerville
Was With The President
WASHINGTON
(CBS) Kia Baskerville is a CBS
News White House producer. She was traveling with President
Bush when the terror attacks occurred on Sept. 11, 2001
"I went on the Florida trip at the last minute, replacing our
White House Correspondent John Roberts. The day started out very early
in the morning with the president jogging on a local golf course --
it was hot, muggy and too many mosquitoes. The most we were expecting
from him was a brief comment on the day’s topic -- education, and hopefully
taxes -- if we were lucky.
A couple of hours later, as the presidential motorcade headed
to President Bush’s first event, I received a call on my cell phone
from a producer who said that a plane had just hit the World Trade Center
in New York.
I honestly couldn’t believe what I had just heard and fifteen
minutes later I was standing in a second grade classroom with 20 students,
who were getting ready to read for the president. He was visiting Emma
E. Booker Elementary School in Sarasota. I received another phone call,
this time from CBS Radio Correspondent Mark Knoller. "Kia, a plane
has now crashed into the second tower of the WTC, so it looks like this
is deliberate. You need to ask Bush about this."

President Bush says he learned of the first plane striking the tower
while "sitting outside the classroom".
"Well, Jordan (ph), you're not going to believe what state
I was in when I heard about the terrorist attack. I was in Florida.
And my chief of staff, Andy Card -- actually I was in a classroom talking
about a reading program that works. And I was sitting outside the classroom
waiting to go in, and I saw an airplane hit the tower -- the TV was
obviously on, and I use to fly myself, and I said, "There's
one terrible pilot." And I said, "It must have been a horrible
accident."
But I was whisked off there -- I didn't have much time to think
about it, and I was sitting in the classroom, and Andy Card, my chief
who was sitting over here walked in and said, "A second plane has
hit the tower. America's under attack."

Hall Meeting December 4, 2001

(Kia Baskerville also seems to confirm that AF1 was "targeted"
that day.)
"In our small, cozy cabin in the back of Air Force One, the
12 or so members of the White House travel pool did what millions
of other Americans did that day: we turned on the news. As the plane
flew on -- we knew not where -- we tuned into one local news report
after another, using the plane’s satellite TV system. We were not
prepared for what we saw. As I looked at the faces of my colleagues,
I saw they were all filled with fear and terror. Then the steward
came by and took our drink orders. There isn’t time to feel
guilty about ordering a Bloody Mary at 10 in the morning, while you
are flying on a targeted plane watching the
World Trade Center collapse in front of your eyes."

Are we really expected to believe that Kia Baskerville learned
of both the 1st and 2nd plane crashes (via cell phone) before the President
of the United States?
She learned of the first plane while on route to the school in the motorcade,
but the POTUS did not?
She learned of the second plane crash (15 minutes later) as the students
"were getting ready to read for the President."
Is this before Andy Card notified him via the whisper in his ear?
I have not seen any discussion of this account of events. Any thoughts?
