Comic apologizes for lying about 9-11 escape Posted: 16 Sep 2015 11:15 AM PDT NEW YORK (AP) — Comedy Central said Wednesday it is reevaluating what to do about Steve Rannazzisi's planned stand-up special this weekend after the comic apologized for lying about working in New York's World Trade Center when terrorists attacked on Sept. 11, 2001.

Obama invites Texas student arrested for homemade clock to White House Posted: 16 Sep 2015 03:41 PM PDT By Jon Herskovitz AUSTIN, Texas (Reuters) - A Texas teenager taken away in handcuffs this week for bringing to his Dallas-area school a homemade clock that staff mistook for a bomb won a personal invitation from President Barack Obama on Wednesday to visit the White House.

Accused gunman in Charleston church shooting proposes guilty plea Posted: 16 Sep 2015 12:19 PM PDT By Harriet McLeod CHARLESTON, S.C. (Reuters) - An attorney for the man accused of gunning down nine people at a historic black church in South Carolina in June said on Wednesday his client is willing to plead guilty to state murder charges if that would spare him a death sentence. A guilty plea by Dylann Roof, 21, in exchange for a sentence of life in prison without parole also would spare the victims' families and survivors of the shootings from the trauma of trial proceedings, Roof's attorney Bill McGuire said. Prosecutors declined to comment afterward on whether they would accept a guilty plea from Roof, who is white and has been linked to white supremacist views.
