A Little Rock, Arkansas, television anchorwoman who was attacked in her home and severely beaten died from her injuries Saturday.

Anna Nicole Smith died February 8, 2007 after collapsing at a hotel and being being rushed to the hospital, one of her lawyers said. Vickie Lynn Marshall (November 28, 1967 -- February 8, 2007), better known under the stage name of Anna Nicole Smith,[1] was an American sex symbol, model, actress, celebrity, and spokeswoman.

Howard Marshall, 63 years her senior, resulted in speculation that she married the octogenarian for his money, which she denied. Following his death, she began a lengthy legal battle over a share of his estate; her case, Marshall v. Marshall, reached the U.S. Supreme Court on a question of federa...

http://NewsTvNow.com Before he died, Heath Ledger had two films in production: "The Dark Knight," the latest chapter in the Batman saga, and "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus," the latest film from director Terry Gilliam. Ledger's death has affected both of them in different ways. The actor, who died Tuesday of unknown causes at age 28, had finished filming "The Dark Knight" late last year.

Sens. John McCain and Barack Obama landed some punches Friday night, but neither delivered a knockout blow in the first presidential debate featuring the two party nominees. Heading into the debate, McCain was supposed to have the edge given that the topic was originally focused solely on foreign policy and national security.

The first 40 minutes of the debate was on the economy with moderator Jim Lehrer offering both candidates a stage to elaborate on how they would address the urgent situation. The financial crisis almost put the debate ...
