Central Park Five, Sam Smith, Juan Manuel Santos, Grindr and Meth, Black Mirror: HOT LINKS<\/b><\/p>\n

CENTRAL PARK FIVE<\/strong>. Trump says Central Park Five are guilty despite the fact that they were cleared by DNA evidence<\/a>. “They admitted they were guilty,” Trump said this week in a statement to CNN’s Miguel Marquez. “The police doing the original investigation say they were guilty. The fact that that case was settled with so much evidence against them is outrageous. And the woman<\/a>, so badly injured, will never be the same.”<\/p>\n

ADJUSTING<\/strong>. Donald Trump changes statement about debate microphone<\/a>. “’It wasn’t that the mike didn’t work,’ Mr. Trump said, during comments about the difficulties he had faced during the debate. The problem, he said, was that the people operating the soundboard had been ‘oscillating’ as he spoke, changing the levels of his voice. In any other election, this would have been an anodyne comment. But it came after Mr. Trump had spent days insisting he had had a ‘bum mike’ and theorizing that there may have been foul play.”<\/p>\n

JUAN MANUEL SANTOS<\/strong>. Colombian president wins Nobel Peace Prize<\/a>: “The president of Colombia was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for pursuing a deal to end 52 years of conflict, the longest-running war in the Americas, just five days after Colombians rejected the agreement<\/a> with a leftist rebel group in a shocking referendum result.”<\/p>\n

\"pride\"<\/a>ORLANDO<\/strong>. LGBT Pride postponed over Hurricane Matthew<\/a>: “Due to the incoming threat of Hurricane Matthew and the risk that it imposes to Central Florida, the organizers of Come Out With Pride are postponing this weekend’s festivities to November. The safety of participants and attendees is our highest priority.”<\/p>\n

GRINDR AND METH<\/strong>. West Hollywood to meet with Grindr CEO Joel Simkhai over meth issue<\/a>: “In a story published two weeks ago, WEHOville cited reports<\/a> in other media and its own investigation of meth dealers in West Hollywood to call<\/a> out Grindr’s app as a tool used to sell the highly addictive drug, which is popular among some gay<\/a> men<\/a>. As WEHOville noted, competing apps such as Scruff have taken steps to make illegal drug sales very difficult. Grindr has not responded to multiple requests from WEHOville about the issue.”<\/p>\n

PROM QUEEN<\/strong>.
