'Sleaze baack!'
A roundup of the headlines from the US front pages
A New York appellate court's "'tragic" reversal" of Harvey Weinstein's rape conviction, as the New York Daily News puts it, features prominently on Friday's front pages. The court cited "errors by judge in 2020 proceedings," the Los Angeles Times says. Weinstein will "stay in prison as prosecutor plans new trial," The New York Times says, while the New York Post proclaims: "Sleaze baack!"
Around the country, college "campuses tighten grip as demonstrations spread" against Israel's Gaza war, including among 2024 "graduates shaped by pandemic, protest," The Wall Street Journal says. "More than 90" people were arrested at a University of Southern California protest, the Los Angeles Times says. But all 57 people arrested at a University of Texas protest in Austin were released as a "judge rejects nearly all charges" and "criticism of police action grows," the Houston Chronicle says.
