Today marks the first time The Beatles appeared on American television: November 18, 1963-The Huntley-Brinkley Report

A day in the life: The Beatles’ first appearance on American television. This is a momentous day in Beatles history. I would have posted about it earlier but I just found out about it! This link will take you to the Nightly News blog (the Huntley-Brinkley report was an early form of the Nightly News in the 1960s) where you can listen to the audio of the four-minute report and read a bit about its effect. The United States had no idea what was about to hit them in the next four months.
