MICHAEL FLYNN. Middle Eastern nuclear project could compound former national security adviser's legal troubles: “In June 2015, retired lieutenant general Michael Flynn took a little-noticed trip to Egypt and Israel, paid for by a U.S. company he was advising. The company hoped to build more than two dozen nuclear plants in the region in partnership with Russian interests. Flynn's quiet involvement in that project — and his failure to disclose his ties to the effort — could complicate the legal issues facing President Trump's former national security adviser, who has signaled he may be willing to cooperate with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III.”

TONY HOVATER. New York Times regrets offending readers by normalizing Nazi sympathizer: “We regret the degree to which the piece offended so many readers. We recognize that people can disagree on how best to tell a disagreeable story. What we think is indisputable, though, is the need to shed more light, not less, on the most extreme corners of American life and the people who inhabit them. That's what the story, however imperfectly, tried to do.” Buzzfeed: You missed something…
HIV. New guidelines are changing lives: “Medical authorities are publicly agreeing that people with undetectable viral loads cannot transmit the virus that causes AIDS. The policy change has profound implications for the way people view HIV. The change promises not just unprotected sex for couples like Kimmenez and his wife, but also reduced stigma for the 1.2 million Americans living with HIV. The policy change also offers the hope that more people will be tested and begin treatment if they are found to have the virus rather than live in denial.

CHINA. Gays feeling emboldened to tackle homophobia: “In September, a gay husband was awarded damages and an apology from a mental institution that colluded with his estranged wife to lock him up for treatment for 19 days. This summer, a homosexual food-safety technician won an appeal against an employer who suspended him after he was tested HIV positive. A judge ruled last spring that a transgender man was unlawfully fired simply because he refused to dress like a woman at work.”
