Those are the headlines at this hour. For more on those stories and other news of today, CNN is always your source, on line, on TV, or on your cellphone. We've got you covered.

 

I heard right now, on CNN.com, Ncole say the above. Could she has said that? I mean my listeing might be correct?

Thanks

Yes. It's a common shortening of 'for more (information/reports) on...'

 Yes.

By the way, I listened it again and again and again, so I should've written For more on those stories and the other news of the day, which I believe she actually said.

Most of us knew that already!  It's a very standard phrase!  Smile
