I kinda remember the 1980 election, but I definitely remember Reagan getting shot.
At the risk of sounding like Black Roadster, what was the first major news story that you remember?
I think mine was the Iranian hostage crisis.

I was in Mrs. Leahy's senior English class at 12:30 pm on November 22, 1963. One of the guys in the class had a dream the night before, so he brought a radio to class. As soon as the news hit the radio, he took the earphone out of the radio so we all could hear.
On the track, I am fearless.
If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

I can't remember what was first, but either television coverage of the Vietnam war, or the footage of the moonbuggy from Apollo 15th.

I remember the news coverage of the Vietnam cease fire, because my uncle was serving there in the Army and my mother cried about it. I thought she was sad, till she explained about tears of joy.
I also vividly remember the launch of Skylab; I was convinced that I could go there and wave to my baby brother. I even snuck out into the backyard after bedtime in the El Centro, CA desert to try to see it.
