** Final Appeals
------------------------------------------------------------
With Britain’s membership in the European Union on the line, campaigners from the prime minister on down blanketed the UK today trying to convert the undecided on the final day before the crucial vote, as the AP’s Gregory Kath and Danica Kirka report (https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/uk-business-leaders-ask-workers-to-vote-to-stay-in-eu/2016/06/22/3d9a33f0-384d-11e6-af02-1df55f0c77ff_story.html) .

Dive Deeper: CSIS’s Heather Conley today authored a new commentary: “The Choice to Leave or to Remain: Reflections from London (https://www.csis.org/analysis/choice-leave-or-remain-reflections-london) .”

And Conley today held a conference call briefing for members of the press on the Brexit vote. The transcript is available for download (https://csis-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/event/160622__Press_Conference_Brexit.pdf) .

** North Korea Missile Test
------------------------------------------------------------
North Korea launched an intermediate-range ballistic missile into high altitude today, demonstrating that the country was making progress after five consecutive failures in just over two months, as the
New York Times’ Choe Sang-Hun reports (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/23/world/asia/north-korea-missile-test.html?_r=0) .

Dive Deeper: In mid-January, CSIS’s Victor Cha and Bonnie Glaser testified before the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Asia and the Pacific on “The U.S. Response to North Korea’s Nuclear Provocations.” Their statements to the Committee are available for download (https://www.csis.org/analysis/us-response-north-koreas-nuclear-provocations) .

** About The News
------------------------------------------------------------
Not to confuse anyone, but you may recall that Bob Schieffer and I recently launched a new podcast series called “State of Journalism.” But here’s the thing: after recording several interviews Bob and I realized that we should change the name of the podcast to be more reflective of what we are doing—holding conversations about the news with the most interesting people in and around news. So…the podcast formerly known as “State of Journalism” is now called “About the News.” We hope you enjoy it.

Our latest interview was posted today. It’s with Snapchat’s head of news, Peter Hamby. If you want to know about the news on the fastest-growing social media platform, this is the podcast for you. Listen on iTunes (https://itun.es/us/VYgadb.c)  or on the CSIS website (https://www.csis.org/podcasts/state-journalism) .
