Interview Prep: Deals

Does anyone know of an online source that has detailed info about recent M&A deals? I've always come prepared to even a coffee chat with a deal in mind but recently a banker has asked me for details about the deal such as "what multiples have they used in the deal?" So if anyone knows of a good source for deal news that would be great. Thanks.
