"CNN says that footage was forwarded to it by the Associated Press and Reuters, and it was dated Sept. 11, 2001. The network assumes that's correct. Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, who condemned the terrorist attack, reportedly attributed any celebrations to a small band of children."

From here. Interesting wording, though. "The network assumes that's correct" - sounds like they're hedging their bets a little...?
