Now outside the statute of limitations, attorneys for Cosby's more recent accusers are demanding apologies from Cosby for calling alleged victims "liars."

| As Pennsylvania nears the end of its first week without a spending plan, budget talks are to resume today, but only at the staff level, not between legislative leaders and the governor himself.

This could save daily commuters over $200 a year. The discount would be calculated automatically on your E-ZPass bill. This proposal would affect 29,000 drivers. The... Read More |
