I came into work one morning and overheard another employee talking about the campaign he worked for having its campaign signs stolen, and how they set up a camera to catch these folks at it. As they were STILL SETTING UP THE CAMERA, the opposing candidate himself shows up with his wife and starts stealing signs. I run my own Citizen Journalism site as a hobby, so I practically jumped on this guy -- begging for the video -- which he gave to me to run. Wound up being my first big story, picked up nationally (though few other sites gave me credit). I had a very similar thing happen to me.

Not students, but members of the public with their phones held up to video and stream. These people probably don't consider themselves citizen journalists, but the archive they're uploading onto their Facebook and YouTube accounts is priceless.
