Newsday

Available for 29 days

The fifteen billion dollar steel mill will be built by Mesabi Metallics in the midwestern state of Iowa. It will the be largest steel plant in US history. We look at what this will mean for the US economy. The family of the Maltese investigative journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia - who was murdered in a car bomb attack nearly a decade ago - say they want accountability for those who they believe ordered the attack. And a report covering 64 nations and 3 million children warns about the negative impact of screen time on children.
