President Obama addressed the nation this afternoon following the tragic school shooting that took place this morning in Newtown, Conn. that has left at least 27 people dead.

Speaking in the White House briefing room at around 3:15 p.m. ET, a visibly emotional President Obama, who paused several times to wipe away tears, said, “We’ve endured too many of these tragedies in the past few years. Each time I learn the news I react not as a president but as anybody else would as a parent. … I know there’s not a parent in America that doesn’t feel the same overwhelming grief that I do. The majority of those who died today were children, beautiful little kids between the ages of 5 and 10. They had their entire lives ahead of them, birthdays, graduations, weddings, kids of their own.”

He also spoke of the future: “We’re going to have to come together to take meaningful action to prevent tragedies like this, regardless of the politics,” and ended by saying, “May God bless the memory of the victims, and in the words of scripture, Heal the broken-hearted and bind up their wounds.”

The President has ordered flags to be flown at half-staff. Watch the video below: READ FULL STORY »

Pat Renella, known for roles such as a gangster killed by Steve McQueen in 1968 crime thriller Bullitt, has died. He was 83.

The actor’s niece confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter on Friday that Renella passed away Nov. 9 at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles after a long bout with chronic illness.

Over his decades long career, Chicago native Renella — with his dark-haired, dark-eyed good looks — appeared on TV shows such as Mannix, General Hospital, S.W.A.T. and McCloud, and in the 1967 teen rebellion cult classic film Riot on Sunset Strip. In Bullitt, he plays Johnny Ross, who fakes his murder to escape the mob, and is hunted down by a San Francisco police lieutenant played by lead McQueen. Renella is survived by his niece and sister.
