'News' in the Bible

And Daniel went to his house and gave his friends Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah the news:

And I have had news of you, that the spirit of the gods is in you, and that light and reason and special wisdom have been seen in you.

And I have had news of you, that you have the power of making things clear, and of answering hard questions: now if you are able to make out the writing and give me the sense of it, you will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain round your neck and be a ruler of high authority in the kingdom.

But he will be troubled by news from the east and from the north; and he will go out in great wrath, to send destruction on, and put an end to, great numbers.
