Boom and Bust
Description
The second two-hour episode of The 2000s: A New Reality continues the decade’s story with TV host Nate Berkus sharing his vivid and emotional personal experience of the Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004, a tragedy that gave rise to citizen journalism. A nation traumatized by terrorism and an unpopular war is given a triumphant reprieve with the capture of Saddam Hussein. But away from the war on terror, celebrity gossip dominates the news—and no story is bigger than Janet Jackson’s infamous “wardrobe malfunction,” which helps kick-start the creation of YouTube.
