Are 911 calls public record?

I would have to imagine that the 911 call from the Orlando shooter where he claims allegiance to ISIS and the Boston bomber contains more information than just that.
Are 911 calls released for the public? I would like to hear it eventually.

They are sometimes, but not always, published. They may be held back because of other evidence, or if they are particularly horrifying.

At a later date, they may be released after a records request, but not right away.

I think they are subject to FOI requests.

It depends on the state.
