Tyler Lee Bennington, the son of late Linkin Park vocalist Chester Bennington, has taken to TikTok to shut down conspiracy theories about his dad’s death. Some on social media are saying that he was murdered. Chester Bennington took his own life in 2017 after struggling with depression. It comes as a previously unheard Linkin Park song featuring Chester’s vocals was shared on social media. The singer’s widow Talinda Bennington launched the 320 Changes Direction initiative shortly afterwards to support those with mental health issues and to break down the stigma attached to depression and addiction.

Get ready for an “X-Files” reboot. Original series creator Chris Carter said in an interview that they are re-working the sci-fi series. "The X-Files" originally aired on Fox from 1993 to 2001 and starred David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, with a revival of two more seasons in 2016 and 2018.

And Carole Baskin is shutting down her big cat sanctuary. Her Big Cat Rescue near Tampa, was made famous by the Netflix series “Tiger King.” Baskin is sending its remaining animal population to a sanctuary in Arkansas because of a new law banning cub petting zoos. Big Cat Rescue was showcased in the "Tiger King" documentary, as Baskin clashed with animal park owner Joe Exotic, who was convicted of plotting to kill her and sentenced to 21 years in prison.
