The Risks of Trump Retweeting Anti-Muslim Messages
Is US Foreign Policy at a Crossroads? – Inside Story
It has been a week of tough talk and miscommunication by the White House. Donald Trump promised to handle the situation in North Korea after its latest missile test. But he was silent on exactly what that meant.
Several hours later, Trump faced a backlash for retweeting anti-Muslim videos from a far-right group in Britain. Prime Minister Theresa May condemned Trump for the tweets.
Nearly two million people have signed a petition, calling on May to revoke an invitation for a state visit for Trump. Another wrinkle for the administration is the future of America's top diplomat.

Inside Story: Can Online Content Be Policed?
The Times investigation found there were many videos of pre-teen girls, which were then liked and commented on by hundreds of paedophiles. One such clip of a young girl drew 6.5 million views. Several companies including chocolate-maker MARS and Deutsche bank have pulled their ads from YouTube.
The newspaper said the site had allowed sexualised imagery of children to be easily searchable. It also criticised the company for not monitoring its content. So, will YouTube do more to monitor and remove certain content?
