It set off a wave of evacuations as the stolen plane continued to terrorize the skies over northern Mississippi. After hours of negotiations, officials say Patterson landed in a deserted field. He has been charged with grand larceny and terroristic threats.

The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) is one of the most reputable news sources in the world. While the BBC is an international news service, half of its weekly circulation is sold in the U.S. Fareed Zakaria is an Indian-American columnist for The Washington Post. He covers Middle Eastern and international issues.
The problem facing many traditional broadcast news stations is that their audiences are shrinking. While cable TV viewership was 76 percent in 2015, it is now only 56 percent. As a result, the Fox News Channel loses around $20 per year from the loss of yearly subscriber fees. Streaming services are also a viable alternative.
In addition to traditional newspapers, the Bentley University library offers electronic access to news publications. Using Bentley credentials, students can access newspapers and news publications from around the world. Alternatively, they can use Google search to access specific publications. This is a great resource for breaking news and current affairs. It’s also worth checking out the online archives of some media outlets to see if you missed an article.
