VW's US Boss Apologises to Lawmakers

Available for over a year

Volkswagen's US boss, Michael Horn, makes a "sincere apology" for installing "defeat devices" to cheat emissions tests on its diesel cars. Ralph Nader, a consumer advocate and previous US presidential candidate, gives his analysis. Also, why has Hillary Clinton come out against President Obama's Trans-Pacific trade deal? Irwin Stelzer at the Hudson Institute in Washington explains. Plus the BBC's David Willis reports on a much-anticipated movie about the life of Apple's co-founder, Steve Jobs, which has provoked controversy even before its release. Jon Bithrey is joined throughout the programme by Mike Selden from Chinasmack, an English language portal all about events in China and by Rosie Blau, the Beijing reporter for The Economist.
