SEATTLE (AP) — Aircraft assembly workers went on strike Friday at Boeing factories in Washington, Oregon and California after union members overwhelmingly rejected a tentative contract that would have increased wages by 25% over four years.

Boeing stock was down 2.2%...

NEW YORK (AP) — Jackson Lamb is an Englishman who solves mysteries, but he’s not your typically elegant, charming type. One clue is that he often passes gas, rather loudly. Lamb — portrayed by Gary Oldman — is the beating heart of Apple TV+’s “Slow Horses,” a critical darling that seems to have gained traction in the U.S. only lately, now in its fourth season. Ignored at the Emmys for two seasons, it goes into Sunday’s telecast with nine...
