NEW YORK (AP) — Greg Gumbel, a longtime CBS sportscaster, has died from cancer, according to a statement from family released by CBS on Friday. He was 78. “He leaves behind a legacy of love, inspiration and dedication to over 50 extraordinary years in the sports broadcast industry; and his iconic voice will never be forgotten,” his wife Marcy Gumbel and daughter Michelle Gumbel said in a statement. In March, Gumbel missed his first NCAA Tournament since 1997 due to what he said at the time were family health issues. Gumbel was the studio host for CBS since returning to the network from NBC in 1998. Gumbel signed an extension with CBS last year that allowed him to continue hosting college basketball while stepping back from NFL announcing duties. In 2001, he announced Super Bowl XXXV for CBS, becoming the first Black announcer in the U.S. to call play-by-play of a major sports championship. David Berson, president and CEO of CBS Sports, described Greg Gumbel as breaking barriers and setting standards for others during his years as a voice for fans in sports, including in the NFL and March Madness. “A tremendous broadcaster and gifted storyteller, Greg led one of the most remarkable and groundbreaking sports broadcasting careers of all time,” said Berson. Gumbel had two stints at CBS, leaving the network for NBC when it lost football in 1994 and returning when it regained the contract in 1998. He hosted CBS’ coverage of the 1992 and 1994 Winter Olympics and called Major League Baseball games during its four-year run broadcasting the national pastime. But it was football and basketball where he was best known and made his biggest impact. Gumbel hosted CBS’ NFL studio show, “The NFL Today” from 1990 to 1993 and again in 2004. He also called NFL games as the network’s lead play-by-play announcer from 1998 to 2003, including Super Bowl XXXV and XXXVIII. He returned to the NFL booth in 2005, leaving that role after the 2022 season.Walmart’s end-of-year clearance sale has thousands of products available for amazing prices. What’s even better?

Man seriously injured in Phoenix shooting
Global stocks mostly rose Tuesday, with US and German indices posting records, as markets weighed Chinese stimulus hopes, political tensions in France and the US interest-rate outlook. Germany's blue-chip DAX stock index jumped above 20,000 points for the first time and Paris rebounded even as France braced for new political turmoil. In New York, both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq narrowly rose to finish at records, while the Dow pulled back. Oil prices jumped more than two percent following reports that crude exporters were near an agreement to extend production limits. A closely-watched labor market report showed an increase in US job openings in October, but also a decline in new job postings during the month, a less upbeat sign. Samuel Tombs, chief US economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said the data overall provides "good grounds" for the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates again this month. Still, the choppiness of Tuesday's trading session in New York points to reticence among US investors following a series of post-election records that many pundits believe have left stocks overvalued. "There wasn't a lot of conviction behind the upside moves," said Briefing.com . "The overall vibe in the market was more negative." Stocks in Paris edged higher even as France headed into a new political crisis as opposition lawmakers vowed to topple the minority government of Prime Minister Michel Barnier in a no-confidence vote after just three months in office. Germany's DAX, meanwhile, scored a fresh milestone, defying multiple headwinds battering Europe's biggest economy. The German economy, hit hard by a manufacturing slowdown and weak demand for its exports, has struggled in 2024. Yet the DAX has advanced in large part because companies in the index do heavy business abroad. In addition, the euro's recent weakness has boosted Germany's export-oriented companies, while easing interest rates both in the eurozone and the United States have also helped sentiment. Investors greeted a Bloomberg report that China's top leaders, including President Xi Jinping, would hold a two-day economic work conference next week to outline their targets and stimulus plans for next year. The report followed manufacturing activity data on Monday that suggested China's economic struggles may be coming to an end, but investors are looking for Beijing to step up support for the economy. The news helped push Hong Kong and Shanghai stock markets higher despite Washington announcing new export restrictions taking aim at Beijing's ability to make advanced semiconductors. The moves step up existing US efforts to tighten curbs on exports of state-of-the-art AI chips to China. Beijing hit back by saying it would restrict exports to the United States of some key components in making semiconductors. Oil prices jumped ahead of a meeting Thursday of members of the OPEC oil cartel and its allies "The forecast is that they will announce an extension until the end of the first quarter of 2025, and this should help put a floor under prices," said Trade Nation analyst David Morrison. - Key figures around 2130 GMT - New York - Dow: DOWN 0.2 percent at 44,705.53 (close) New York - S&P 500: UP 0.1 percent at 6,049.88 (close) New York - Nasdaq Composite: UP 0.4 percent at 19,480.91 (close) London - FTSE 100: UP 0.6 percent at 8,359.41 (close) Paris - CAC 40: UP 0.3 percent at 7,255.42 (close) Frankfurt - DAX: UP 0.4 percent at 20,016.75 (close) Tokyo - Nikkei 225: UP 1.9 percent at 39,248.86 (close) Hong Kong - Hang Seng Index: UP 1.0 percent at 19,746.32 (close) Shanghai - Composite: UP 0.4 percent at 3,378.81 (close) Euro/dollar: UP at $1.0511 from $1.0498 on Monday Pound/dollar: UP at $1.2673 from $1.2655 Dollar/yen: DOWN at 149.53 yen from 149.60 yen Euro/pound: DOWN at 82.94 from 82.95 pence Brent North Sea Crude: UP 2.5 percent at $73.62 per barrel West Texas Intermediate: UP 2.7 percent at $69.94 per barrel burs-jmb/dwFederal DEI spending explodes under Biden-Harris administration

Sportscaster Greg Gumbel dies from cancer at age 78WATCH: This Charles Barkley 'Joke' About Jay-Z Leads to Reactions From Shaq, 'Inside the NBA' CrewSean ’Diddy’ Combs’ third bid to be released on bail won’t be decided until next weekKeeping families’ sensitive, personal information safe from cyberattacks has become the top insurance risk for private schools in Australia, according to a global insurance broker. AON Australia, which has more than 600 Australian private schools on its books, has named cyber risk as schools’ primary area of vulnerability, followed by mental health and social media, in its Independent Schools Risk Report . The digital world was the common thread linking the top three areas of risk for private schools. Credit: Getty Images For the first time in the decade that the broking firm has produced the report, child abuse allegations entered the top 10 risk areas for schools managing students’ online and real-world safety. In this context, the term child abuse includes abuse from fellow children or at the hands of adults. AON national education director Andrew Leahy said this in part reflected the 2017 release of the report of the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. He said for many schools, getting insurance cover for child abuse was becoming “incredibly difficult”. An increasingly complex digital environment was the common thread linking the top three areas of risk for private schools, with cyberattacks becoming an established threat schools could not ignore. “You’ll never get in front of it,” Leahy said, adding that the nature of the information schools held made them vulnerable. “Schools have a lot of personal, identifiable information,” he said. “They have names, addresses, dates of birth, potentially medical conditions or counselling records as well as school records. There’s a lot of information there, which is very sensitive.” The “always on” expectations were a significant driver of mental health issues among students and staff, Leahy said, adding that a growing number of digital platforms, messaging apps and increased sophistication of AI had also compounded the risks schools had to manage. In June, fake nude images of 50 female Bacchus Marsh Grammar students were generated using AI and put on Instagram and shared on Snapchat. “The No.1 issue in dealing with students is social media,” principal Andrew Neal said. “One of the issues that we’re worried about is the capacity to cover off on harm caused by AI.” Loading Neal said the private co-ed school was hit “virtually every day” with ransomware attacks, an experience echoed by Yarra Valley Grammar principal Dr Mark Merry. He said the school employed an external company to conduct penetration tests on the school’s system because of the devastating impact a cyberattack could have. “I can’t think of anything that would unravel parental trust in a school more than to have their personal details just dumped on the web,” he said. “It is a real risk, and to schools in particular, because of the nature of the information we hold.” The Australian Signals Directorate’s annual cyberthreat report, published last month, highlighted private schools’ vulnerability to cyberattacks , noting the perception by cybercriminals that private schools had a greater capacity to pay a ransom made them prime targets.
