For a second, Donald Trump seemed to be backing off his vitriolic attacks on the free press. After five journalists were massacred at the Annapolis Capital Gazette, Trump briefly toned down his slurs. He even invited New York Times publisher A.J. Salzburger Jr. to the White House to clear the air. But it didn't last.
Last week, the Hollywood Police Department conducted a useless, money-wasting "sting" on an adult store, where they arrested 13 men who were masturbating or having consensual oral sex in private, locked rooms. Rather than ask why the hell HPD thought it should be arresting gay men for no reason...
The case of a 19-year-old allegedly assaulted by a Miami Police officer in some ways mirrors that of Christine Blasey Ford, the research psychologist who has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of attempted sexual assault.

There's already plenty of depression to go around in South Florida before this Memorial Day. Traffic is gonna be a ludicrous nightmare thanks to Miami Beach's totally not-race-related crackdown on Urban Beach Week. The Marlins belong in the trash can, and the Dolphins will probably be even worse. And now, a tropical depression might just roll over the peninsula for the holiday weekend.

Most fans headed out to see Sam Smith at the American Airlines Arena this weekend are likely unfamiliar with curly-haired, country-singing opening act Cam, but they probably know at least one of her songs by heart.

Miami-Dade kinda decriminalized marijuana in 2015. That year, the county commission gave police officers the option of issuing civil tickets, like traffic fines, instead of arresting people caught with 20 grams of pot or less. The measure was hailed as a massive win for justice-reform advocates, who rightfully argue that pot possession is harmless and not worth jail time.
Miami Beach is loud 365 days of the year, and 366 days when it's a leap year. Pitbull sits atop an entire subgenre of pop-rap dedicated to singing about how, at its core, club-filled, liquor-fueled, sleep-deprived Miami Beach is an extremely loud place to be.
A new brewery specializing in farmhouse-inspired wild ales has found a home in Miami. Later this year, Unseen Creatures Brewing & Blending husband-and-wife cofounders Marco and Vicky Leyte-Vidal will offer Miami-Dade a new kind of brewery in the heart of the Bird Road District. More than two years in the making, the Unseen Creatures brewery and taproom will be located off SW 45th Court in a 5,300-square-foot building just blocks from Lincoln’s Beard Brewing.
There's something genuinely exciting about seeing part of your hometown or even your home state on the big screen, especially when you're from South Florida. Most movies wind up set in New York City or Los Angeles, and more and more of them are being filmed in Atlanta or Vancouver, but there are plenty of films where you'll find perfectly recognizable stretches of Miami's beaches or familiar streets in Coconut Grove.

Miami Party Boats Can Be Lethal
Last year, seemingly overnight, hundreds of brightly colored bicycles from companies like Lime and Ofo began popping up everywhere in Miami. Or, as Miami-Dade County Commissioner Javier Souto puts it, the bikes began "descending upon neighborhoods," like some kind of two-wheeled invasive species. He and other county officials are fed up...
Before Solo cups became the stuff of beer pong and mystery punch in the realm of teenage iconography, they were the conduits of makeshift fence signage. Messages like "CONGRATS CLASS OF '18" and "GO FALCONS" are spelled out by plastic circles in front of schools all over America...
The Miami Hurricanes cleaned up during Wednesday's first-ever NCAA early signing period. While many of the names of the players who committed to wearing the orange and green next season didn't surprise, that didn't make the results any less impressive.

Udonis Haslem wants to continue playing basketball. Confirmed. You can forget about him hanging it up. Return all of those golf clubs and fishing lure retirement gifts — he'll be putting on a jersey next season. Which jersey Udonis dons, though, is a surprising story now. Even more surprising is the fact that his jersey could belong to a team in China, Europe, or any another country overseas.
Greenfield searches for commonalities between her subjects, linking the tacky and Trumpy nouveau riche to the strippers and pornographic performers who embody her conviction that for American women the body itself is a commodity
This country does not do earnestness well. We would rather turn you into a meme than lend you an understanding ear. We have trouble digesting sincerity unless it’s wrapped in something less vulnerable. Perhaps that’s part of the reason some folks have so much trouble with J. Cole. His...
In 2012, Miami-Dade County became one of the first places to test a gunshot-detection technology called ShotSpotter, which uses acoustic sensors to alert police to gunfire. But after a year of the pilot program, the county abandoned the system over concerns about its effectiveness: Officers were able to confirm only 50 shootings of 1,000 supposedly detected by ShotSpotter, and the department couldn't point to a single crime the technology helped solve.
