Today In History: Super-Sized Malfunction

September 22.  On this day in history, the inaugural Farm Aid concert took the stage in 1985, raising $10 million to support struggling farmers across Middle America. Just two years later, in 1987, "Full House" made its debut on ABC, bringing the Tanner family into living rooms nationwide. In 1989, "Baywatch" premiered, launching a wave of slow-motion beach scenes and lifeguard drama. Then in 1994, the world met six friends at Central Perk when the first episode of Friends aired. In 1997, Elton John's "Candle in the Wind 1997," a heartfelt tribute to Princess Diana, was released just weeks after her tragic death. Fast forward to 2004, when the FCC fined 20 CBS stations over half a million dollars for Janet Jackson’s infamous Super Bowl halftime “wardrobe malfunction.” By 2015, Instagram celebrated 400 million users, cementing its status in the social media world. And on this day in 2012, Taylor Swift’s "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" held strong at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for a third week. That’s your Almanac for today, on Northwest Newsradio.
