A new weekly newscast from The Tablet is launching with a special report marking 25 years since September 11.

Sunday in the City, a new weekly news program from The Tablet, will premiere on NET-TV with a special edition Sunday, September 13, 2026, at 7 p.m. EST, marking the 25th anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks. 

The new program brings The Tablet’s trusted journalism to television in a fresh, weekly format — connecting the news of New York, the Catholic community and the world to the people and stories behind the headlines. Sunday in the City will offer viewers a thoughtful look at the week’s most important stories, with reporting that explores faith, culture, community and the issues shaping Catholic life in New York. 

Its premiere special, “September 11: 25 Years Later,” will set the tone for the new program, looking back at the lives forever changed by September 11, honoring the courage of first responders and survivors, and examining the enduring role of faith in the aftermath of tragedy. 

The special will feature: 

The 25th Anniversary Commemorations 

From Ground Zero, where family members will read the names of those killed, to the Co-Cathedral of St. Joseph, where Bishop Robert Brennan will celebrate Mass following a procession with members of the FDNY, Sunday in the City will bring viewers coverage of the major commemorations. 

Survivors’ Stories 

One survivor of September 11, 2001, escaped the 87th floor of the North Tower just as the South Tower collapsed. The shoes she wore that day are now part of the 9/11 Memorial & Museum  collection. 

Another survivor was not aboard United Flight 175 that morning. In the years since, he  has walked thousands of miles in memory of the flight attendants aboard the hijacked  planes, whom he calls the “first first responders.” 

The Vow to Never Forget 

Sunday in the City will introduce viewers to Diocese of Brooklyn chaplains whose ministry took on a new mission after September 11, and who continue to accompany  survivors and victims’ families. 

The September 11 special is only the beginning: Sunday in the City will continue each week with compelling reporting from The Tablet and the Diocese of Brooklyn, bringing viewers stories that matter to New York’s Catholic community and beyond. The program will combine news, interviews, features and analysis with The Tablet’s distinctive perspective — offering a slower, more meaningful look at the people and issues behind the headlines. 

Sunday in the City is produced by NET-TV, an Emmy Award-winning cable network featuring news and information from the Catholic perspective. It is available in the New York area on Spectrum Channel 97, Optimum Channel 30, and Verizon Fios Channel 548. Viewers can also watch the programming live at https://thetablet.org/ and www.youtube.com/@CurrentsNY.
