BREAKING NEWS
Peter Jennings dies of lung cancer

Nearly four months to the day since he announced in a hoarse voice on his evening newscast that he had been diagnosed with lung cancer, longtime ABC "World News Tonight" anchor Peter Jennings died Sunday, according to the ABC news network. He was 67. ABC's Charles Gibson read a statement from Jennings' family that said: "Peter died with his family around him, without pain and in peace. He knew he had lived a good life."
