Week In The News: Flight Search, Annexation, Recall (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

A missing plane took over the news again this week.  Flight 370.  Just gone.  But there was much more.  Russia, swallowing Crimea.  Not blinking at Western sanctions.  Everyone wondering how far Putin will go.  Another big GM auto recall and a record fine on Toyota.  The highest ranking US military officer ever court-martialed in a sexual assault case, off with a minor reprimand.  We’ve got news from the first second of the Big Bang.  Rand Paul reaching big tent.  Obamacare in the home stretch for sign-up.  This hour On Point: our weekly news roundtable goes behind the headlines. / Tom Ashbrook
