At 8:46 a.m. on Tuesday, September 11, most national news outlets took a break from their regular programming to air a special "moment of silence" from New York City and Washington D.C. to honor the victims of 9/11. We say "most" because, as it turns out, not everyone was a participant. While FOX, CBS, ABC, CNBC and MSNBC went quiet at this time, which was the moment 11 years ago when the first plane hit the Twin Towers, NBC continued on with the 'Today' show, which just so happened to feature an interview with Kris Jenner of 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians.'

Star magazine says workers in China — some as young as 16 — earn only $1 an hour while toiling away up to 84 hours a week in hot, squalid conditions to manufacture merchandise for the K-Dash by Kardashian label, the Kris Jenner Kollection, and Kim’s ShoeDazzle line.
