NYC City Council Starts Investigation of Radios Used By Firefighters On 9/11

Prompted by years of media reports and a recent web video about faulty radios carried by NYC firefighters who were trying to rescue thousands of workers from the twin towers, a member of the NYC City Council is starting an investigation into the radios and whether a no-bid contract led contributed to NYC spending millions on faulty radios.

In the midst of his presidential candidacy, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani now faces a looming government investigation into his handling of the radios used by firefighters on 9/11.

The investigation, which will examine how the FDNY ended up using faulty equipment during the terrorist attacks and why Giuliani gave a no-bid contract to Motorola for that equipment, has been endorsed by New York City Councilman Eric Gioia, chair of the city's oversight and investigations committee.
