British Airways Probes Customer Data Theft

Global business news, with live guests and contributions from Asia and the USA.

British Airways says it is investigating "as a matter of urgency" the theft of customer data from its website and mobile app. We get more from Dr Daniel Dresner, from the University of Manchester. In Sweden voters are preparing to elect national and local government representatives on Sunday, but new research shows that opinions are being strongly influenced by fake news. We speak to Freja Hedman of the Oxford Internet Institute about its new report. We have the latest from the confirmation hearings for President Trump's Supreme Court nominee and we examine why the Toronto Film Festival is launching with a Netflix film about Robert the Bruce. Something that wouldn't happen at Cannes.
Our live guests are Erin Delmore, Senior Political Correspondent at Bustle.com and David Kuo, Director of Motley Fool, Singapore.
