When was 911blogger.com founded?
911blogger.com initially started as posts on a personal blog by the original owner of the site, dz in September of 2004. On March 8th, 2005 the posts from his personal blog were moved to blogspot.com and finally to the 911blogger.com domain on April 5th, 2005. On July 1st 2007 dz retired and handed the responsibility to Reprehensor. Reprehensor lead the moderation team until he retired on July 30th 2009 and transferred the site to jkeogh. On November 17th 2009 jkeogh and Orangutan formed 9/11 Blogger LLC.

Why don't I see a certain story on 911blogger.com?
911blogger.com strives to promote credible news and information, fact-based research and analysis, and sound efforts for justice concerning the 9/11 attacks, the aftermath, and related events and activities. User submissions help make 911blogger what it is, and are very much appreciated. However, 911blogger is a privately-owned and managed website; not all posts are published, and not all users will agree with all editorial decisions. If you don't see something on the site, it's either because nobody has taken the time to post the story yet (in this case we need your help to post it), or because the moderation team has researched the post and does not believe it contains reliable information. From time to time, you may see something posted on the site you feel violates the editorial standards; this could be due to some oversight, or it may have been decided there was an interest in informing the public about it. Your feedback is always appreciated.


Why isn't a certain story on the front page?
Often stories will appear in the blogs section and then later on the front page. We don't rush blogs onto the front page before we have a chance to review them. Sometimes the moderation team needs time to review a story, or listen to a interview, or watch a film. If a trusted user posts a favourable review of the blog we may take their word for it and post it FP without personally reviewing it. Sometimes we wait because another story is currently being featured on the top of the front page. Rarely, we are not all in agreement about a story, in that case, we speak with one voice and only make FP decisions only when we all agree. Your feedback is appreciated. Please resist the impulse to post a standard "why is xyz not on the FP?" comment.

Where can I find the old 911blogger site?

What do the numbers next to the comments and blogs tabs represent?
The numbers represent the total number of new comments or blogs posted within the last 24 hours.


Why am I unable to edit a comment?
Comments that have a reply can not be edited.
