Today is Monday, December 30th. We'll start remembering the 39th and longest living U.S. president

who died over the weekend at age 100. Then we'll tell you about one of the deadliest aviation disasters

in years. What video does and doesn't tell us about the passenger plane that crashed in South Korea

killing 179 people? Plus, dozens of tornadoes hit the southern U.S. over the weekend.

President-elect Trump weighed in on the TikTok ban that's set to take effect next month,

and when and where you can watch the record-breaking Wicked movie from home. Those stories and even

more news to know today. Next. Welcome, welcome to The Newsworthy.

All the day's news in around 10 minutes.

Fast, fair, fun, and on the go.

I'm Erica Mandy.

Thanks so much for being here.

You ready?

Let's do this.

The 39th president of the United States, Jimmy Carter, has died. At 100 years old, he was the longest living former president in U.S. history. And while he only served one term in the White House, he had a post-presidency career that was arguably more notable than his time in office. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for his decades of work

in advancing international peace, democracy, and human rights. He also won three Grammys for his

audiobooks and served as Habitat for Humanities' best-known advocate. The Carter Center confirmed

he died peacefully yesterday at his home in Plains, Georgia, surrounded by family. The former president

had been receiving

hospice care for more than a year. Outside the Carter Center in Atlanta, bouquets of flowers

began to pile up yesterday. President Biden has scheduled a state funeral in Washington, D.C. for

January 9th, saying it'll be a national day of morning across the U.S. He also ordered U.S.

flags to be flown at half-mast for 30 days.
