THE LEAD STORY: A U.S. Navy aircraft carrying 11 crashed into the Pacific Ocean while approaching the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan, the U.S. Navy said ... Japan says 8 of the 11 personnel have been found. They have been transferred to the USS Ronald Reagan for medical evaluation and are in good condition. The U.S. 7th Fleet says a search and rescue operation for the three remaining personnel has been launched from the carrier. The plane was taking part in an ongoing joint U.S.-Japan naval exercise in the waters surrounding Okinawa from Nov. 16-26 when it crashed into the Pacific. The cause of the crash was not immediately clear, however Japanese Defense Minister Itsunori Onodera said the U.S. Navy told him that engine trouble was possible. FCC TARGETS NET NEUTRALITY: FCC Chairman Ajit Pai announced plans to eliminate Obama-era net neutrality rules, calling for a "light-touch regulatory approach" to the Internet ... Pai said FCC commissioners will consider his proposal Dec. 14. The net neutrality regulations imposed utility-style regulation on Internet service providers such as Comcast, AT&T and Verizon to prevent them from favoring their own digital services over their rivals. Pai says the rules adopted during the Obama years prevent Internet service providers from providing better and faster online access. UBER HACK COVER-UP: Ride-hailing company Uber says it paid hackers $100,000 and covered up a year-old cyberattack in which hackers stole the data of more than 57 million drivers and customers ... The hack occurred in late 2016. The hackers stole the names and driver's license numbers of roughly 600,000 Uber drivers, as well as the names, email addresses and phone numbers of some 57 million users. Uber says user credit card numbers, bank account numbers and social security numbers were not exposed. Uber attributed the hack to two individuals who accessed the data through a "third-party cloud-based service." TRUMP DEFENDS MOORE: President Trump defended Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore, who faces sexual misconduct allegations ahead of the state's Dec. 12 election. ... "Look, he denies it ... He says it didn't happen, and you know, you have to listen to him also," Trump told reporters, adding that Alabama voters should not support Moore's Democratic opponent. "We don't need a liberal person in there, a Democrat [Doug] Jones ... We do not need somebody that's going to be bad on crime, bad on borders, bad with the military, bad for the Second Amendment." Meanwhile,. U.S. Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., is under congressional investigation after settling with an ex-staffer who reportedly complained she was fired for rebuffing his sexual advances. In addition, liberal groups called on Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., to resign after a second woman came forward with sexual misconduct allegations. REMEMBERING A '70S ICON: "Partridge Family" star David Cassidy died Tuesday after suffering liver and kidney failure, his publicist confirmed. He was 67 ... "David died surrounded by those he loved, with joy in his heart and free from the pain that had gripped him for so long," JoAnn Geffen said. "Thank you for the abundance of love and support you have shown him these many years." Born into a show business family, Cassidy rocketed to stardom on ABC's "The Partridge Family," a sitcom about a widow (played by Cassidy's real-life stepmother Shirley Jones) and her five children who form a rock band and tour the country. As eldest son Keith Partridge, Cassidy became a global heartthrob and was the face -- and voice -- of the Partridge Family's biggest hit, "I Think I Love You."
