Labor leader Jimmy Hoffa is reported missing
On the morning of this day in 1975, James Riddle Hoffa, one of the most influential American labor leaders of the 20th century, is officially reported missing after he failed to return home the previous night. Though he is popularly believed to have been the victim of a Mafia hit, conclusive evidence was never found and Hoffa’s fate remains a mystery.

Americans do not say tidbit because they would titter at BrE titbit.
Americans say tidbit because that's the original form of the word.
