Wayne Newton wins 8.19B NBC defamation verdict in Las Vegas
Jurors award Newton 8.19 billion including 5 million for loss of income 1.14678 million for future earnings and 225000 for suffering in a Las Vegas libel trial against NBC producers Ross and Silverman over broadcasts tied to Newton and the Aladdin Hotel. NBC plans appeal arguing the verdict may chill press reporting while Newton’s side hailed the judgment as a landmark in libel cases against news coverage.

Island volcano erupts again near Tokyo
Mount Mihara on Oshima Island, 70 miles south of Tokyo, erupted in a fountain of fire reviving evacuation efforts. Government officials reported 2,000 islanders evacuated or awaiting return, with ships standing by to move residents if needed. Island life relies on farming, tourism, and fishing as the Izu island chain remains highly active.
