Today, one journalist's story about how her unconventional upbringing shaped her life and career.
Katie Tur spent much of her childhood in a helicopter.
I grew up 500 to 1,000ft over Los Angeles in the sky.
Katie's parents, Bob and Marie Ka?
Ter, were trailblazers in the journalism world.
They revolutionized the breaking news model and were fiercely committed to being first on the scene, which meant literally flying over the competition in their own chopper.
Oh, good.
That'll look good for the live shot.
I'm going live in a second.
Stand by, everybody.
Together they co founded a media company called Los Angeles News Service.
And from the late 70s into the 90s, they captured some of the most iconic breaking news footage of all time.
Like the 1992 LA riots.

Simpson down there below you.
