While for some it was a pain to get any kind of news, for certain others (such as myself) there was a certain diarrhea of rumors, especially during the first few hours of the tragedy.
One of those rumors that quickly vanished was about a few airplanes that suddenly disappeared from the radar screen (I am not talking about any of the four crashed airplanes). I do not recall of any retraction concerning them. Did I missed a media formal apology for a rumor or did those missing airplanes-as-a-topic really vanished from the newscast? Thanks for the precisions.
