Overnight Briefing & General Reality Check - Apr 26, 2018

Broadcast, cable and video news:

STEVE IRWIN will be getting a posthumous star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in front the Iguana Vintage Store this morning at 11:30 am (Pacific). WES MANNION, the Director of Australia Zoo and Wildlife Warriors will be helping unveil the star with the Irwin family.

Grace notes from Vinny Marino:

LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM was fired. That's what drummer MICK FLEETWOOD told "CBS This Morning." Mick said FLEETWOOD MAC had been planning a world tour for more than a year, but Lindsey wanted to wait another year. That wasn't going to work so Mick said (quote), "It just became a huge impasse and hit a brick wall, where we decided we had to part company." New members NEIL FINN of CROWDED HOUSE and former TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS guitarist MIKE CAMPBELL are in for the long haul, not just the upcoming tour which was officially announced yesterday. The tour begins in Tulsa on October 3rd, and wraps in Philadelphia on April 5th, 2019. (Marino)
