The American version of Gillian Flynn’s conspiracy theory thriller 'Utopia' has been cancelled by Amazon. Gizmodo reports the series received a fairly poor reception all around. The news comes via the Hollywood Reporter, noting that this is the end of a journey for the series that began in 2014. HBO initially picked up the show, however they later passed. David Fincher was eyed to direct but he left the project. The series is about a global conspiracy surrounding a horrible pandemic. To many Tv viewers it felt too close to home.
After much ado about mutable microphones and plexiglass shields, President Donald Trump will face opponent Joe Biden on Thursday. CNN reports Trump needs to not just perform well at the presidential debate, he'll need to pull a rabbit out of the hat to swing the race his way. The president trails Biden in both national polls and key swing states that will determine whether he has a path to victory in the Electoral College. Both candidates need to improve their standing with certain groups, though. Biden needs more Hispanic voters, and Trump is struggling to get White suburban women. Biden has been laying low recently, preparing for the event. Trump, meanwhile has been barnstorming across the country in full gripe-and-moan mode. The president spends his rallies insulting scientists and refusing any responsibility for the pandemic, which has created a huge drag on his poll numbers.
Vu Ang Nguyen worked as a selling support associate for Amazon.com in Tempe, Arizona. That gave him the power to manually authorize refund requests. And according to Business Insider, he sure did. A lot. Nguyen was arrested and charged with fraud last week after the company reported him to the FBI. Federal prosecutors say in court documents that Nguyen used his position to issue $96,508 in fraudulent refunds to himself and friends. Nguyen allegedly used eight fake buyer accounts to purchase expensive computers and electronics before issuing more than 300 refunds to the accounts. He then funneled the money to himself and his associates without returning the electronics.
