The National Rifle Association capped its annual convention Sunday by hosting a “Youth Day” — enticing youngsters to attend by offering free six-month memberships. Billed by the NRA as a family-fun outing, the event drew hundreds of kids.

A local news anchor’s disastrous first moments on the job have turned him into a Web sensation and an unlikely media star. After being fired for dropping an f-bomb on his first seconds out as the weekend co-anchor at the NBC station in Bismarck, N.D., A.J. Clemente was cooked.
