My Most Memorable TV Moments

Back in July, I wrote about the study that ranked the things that we saw on the TV over the past 50 years that had an impact on us.  Some I agreed with, others I was appalled.  I mean, how could you possibly rank the O.J. Simpson verdict #3, above the Challenger Shuttle explosion #4.  The JFK funeral ranked in at #20.

Of course, they questioned all age groups, and reality TV watchers as well as others.

Anyway, of the Top Twenty, I agreed with, in no particular order, but with the survey's #1 as my #1, 9-11.

1.  September 11, 2011 terrorist attacks
2.  Hurricane Katrina (2005)
4.  Challenger space shuttle explosion (1986)
5.  Death of Osama bin Laden (2011)
7.  Japanese earthquake and tsunami ((2011)
8.  Columbine school shootings (1999)
9.  BP oil spill in Gulf of Mexico (2010)
15.  JFK assassination (1963)
16.  Oklahoma City bombing (1995)
20.  JFK funeral (1963)
