Business Matters: The murder of James Foley 21 Aug 14

Thu, 21 Aug 14

Roger Hearing is joined by Heather Timmons, Asia Correspondent for Quartz1, and Nancy Marshall-Genzer, senior reporter for US business programme Marketplace. Along with writer and journalist, Sunny Hundal, and Haris Tarin, from the US-based Muslim Public Affairs Council, they're talking about the murder of US journalist James Foley and ask: given the widespread outrage2 at the sharing of the execution video on social media, should some things be off-limits online? We have a report from Scotland about how independence could affect the country's buoyant banking3 sector4, and Juliana Liu joins us from Hong Kong for a look at all the latest business stories in the Asia Pacific region. Plus, we're joined by Zack Brown - the man who used KickStarter to raise money to buy a tub of potato salad. Initially5 hoping for just $10, Zack, whose middle name is Danger, has now raised $55,000 and plans to stage a potato salad-themed music festival in his home town of Columbus, Ohio.
