Kelly's Fox News colleague, Sean Hannity, accused Kelly of backing Hillary Clinton on Wednesday, Oct. 5, 2016. The spat began Wednesday night on Kelly’s program, when the anchor criticized both GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump and the Democratic candidate, Clinton, of avoiding tough media interviews. Kelly said Trump “will go on Hannity and pretty much only Hannity.” Hannity responded on Twitter that Kelly “clearly” supports Clinton.

Donald Trump continues to hammer away at the Central Park Five even though they have long been exonerated for the rape of a jogger in 1989.
The Republican presidential candidate told CNN in a statement this week that "they admitted they were guilty. The police doing the original investigation say they were guilty. The fact that that case was settled with so much evidence against them is outrageous. And the woman, so badly injured, will never be the same."
The five teens spent several years in jail, but the charges were dropped in 2002 after convicted killer and rapist Matias Reyes confessed to the crime. Authorities were able to tie Reyes' DNA to the Central Park attack, but no DNA evidence had been found to connect the teens. The Central Park Five eventually agreed to a $41 million settlement.
"What more do we have to prove? I'm tired of proving our innocence! I don't care what this a--hole thinks," Raymond Santana of the Central Park Five tweeted to Trump on Friday.
Santana added in a second tweet that Trump "will never get the black & Latino" vote.
After the attack 27 years ago, Trump took out a full-page ad in local newspapers that called for the five teens to receive the death penalty.
"I want to hate these muggers and murderers," he wrote. "They should be forced to suffer and, when they kill, they should be executed for their crimes."
"They must serve as examples so that others will think long and hard before committing a crime or an act of violence."
Trump did admit last year that the Central Park Five should not have been given the death penalty because the 28-year-old jogger did not die. However, he ripped Mayor de Blasio for the $41 million settlement.
"They should be very thankful I wasn't mayor because they wouldn’t have gotten a dime," Trump said.
