[0:14] on World News Tonight this Thursday. The
[0:16] Egypt airplane was deliberately put into
[0:19] a dive. But why? The investigation
[0:21] today. Two politicians who [music]
[0:23] managed to hold up the nation's
[0:25] business. But why? A report on how to
[0:27] work the system. South Carolina decides
[0:30] to pay for an entertainment center
[0:32] instead of education. But why? We'll

[1:31] Lisa Stark covers the investigation for
[1:33] us. And Lisa, I I gather based on your
[1:36] reporting today, there are several

[1:38] >> That's right, Peter. They're looking at
[1:39] everything. But here's the problem
