From NPR News, this is NEWS & NOTES. I'm Farai Chideya.
Coming up, we've got a look at the week's top entertainment stories with Newsweek's Allison Samuels. And later, a bittersweet snapshot just in time for Father's Day.
But first, let's kick things off with headlines. Today we start in a neighborhood near you, new for closure numbers came out yesterday from the Mortgage Bankers Association. Subprime for closures hit an all-time high for the first quarter of the year. Nearly one-in-five subprime loans was either delinquent by, at least a month, or in for closure. Analysts warn we may not have seen the worst. NEWS & NOTES will bring you more on this next week in out economics segment.
And out second headline takes us to at least one person who doesn't have to worry about losing her house. Oprah Winfrey landed in the top slot of Forbes magazine's celebrity 100 power list. Winfrey apparently earned worth of $250 million in the last 12 months - whew - and she's showing no sign of slowing. An African-American scored not only the top spot but runner-up too, that was golf entrepreneur Tiger Woods, who racked up a $100 million. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
