We hear from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Samira Hussain, who's following the hearing from New York. Plus, following Facebook's name change to Meta, we get analysis from Marketplace's Kimberly Adams. And the government in Beijing is calling a halt to Chinese cities' race to the heavens by imposing height limits for sky scrapers. We hear from Sherry Fei Ju, a business reporter in Beijing.
