Oh no
Possibly because she didn’t have the internet and cable TV blasting information into her face from multiple sources all day long. Your news sources were the nightly news (on three networks, if you could successfully tune to all three with your rabbit ears) and maybe the daily paper if you wanted to read it. Meet the Press on Sundays if you were a heathen politics junkie. If you didn’t watch TV, you were probably basically newsless.

She probably knew what was happening on a very broad scale, but not the details or why it was happening.
