I too watched for days when it actually happened and don't want to see it again. However, this is a record of what happened right from the beginning and it should be preserved. For people who did not see what happened at the time (because of work, school, whatever) they might want to watch at least part of it (I should add I averted my eyes when people were falling/jumping out of buildings, I could not watch that), just to see what it was really like. Short clips or written articles just can't convey the shock and horror of it all. While I don't think we should obsess about it, I think we should "never forget" either.
Through the horror there were also scenes of hope, bravery and a coming together that were inspiring.
