I suppose it depends by what metric you would measure "biggest news story".

If you protest, it's because you feel your voice isn't being heard. If you riot, it's because you feel your voice is being ignored.

No doubt that the pandemic has been a big story and it has changed life as we know it.
But I don't think it's quite on the same level as 9/11. That sparked massive changes in security levels, paranoia, vilification of an entire religion and people from certain countries. It sparked a war that cost Billions of dollars and many many lives, its effects are still felt to this day and will be forever more I think.

It's either or pandemic or 9/11 in my life time tbh.

On a global scale, definitely, but even specifically for the UK, where I live. 9/11 and the 2008 crash are the only contenders (7/7 was more directly relevant to us, but I have to admit 9/11 was bigger), but I'd still go with the pandemic. It's possibly killed more than 9/11 (including indirect deaths), or it will have done when it's over, and probably worse economically than 2008.

If you go by e.g. column inches, online articles and social media discussions, then 9/11 is probably bigger in that sense (limiting it to the same timescale for fairness), at least in the US and UK. Globally, probably not.

9/11 had less immediately noticeable impacts.
