" a good actor, but, hell, I'm Willie Nelson!" That's right, you are.

Remembering 9/11: How Late-Night Comedy Bounced Back After the Tragedy

Nick Romano — Tue, 11 Sep 2012 15:02:29 +0000

The events of September 11, 2001 will forever be engraved in American history as one of the most tragic events, and the most impactful moment of our lifetime.

At the time, most couldn't find the proper words to address the situation, but despite this challenge, it was left to all the late-night shows and media outlets that we often turn to for guidance to help us make sense of 9/11 and help us move on.
