The Hoax of Roger Ebert

"Because I didn't experience it, I can't get to the emotional level that other people have," Ebert says of 9-11. "For my friends in New York, they went through a war and it changed them... And then it seems to have had this major profile." He adds: "I'm not saying I'm aloof to what happened. I know what happened ... But emotionally... It just different touches me".
