The French government has announced €100 billion of spending after the economy shrank by almost 14% between April and June - the biggest quarterly fall since the end of the Second World War. We hear from David Thesmar, Professor of Financial Economics at MIT Sloan in New England and Aymeric Prigent from environmentally-friendly construction firm, ACCORT-Paille. Facebook is pledging not to allow new political adverts in the seven days prior to the US election in November; we hear from Graham Brookie from the Atlantic Council, a group that tracks disinformation. The English Premier League has terminated a $750m deal with a big Chinese firm, curtailing live matches on the PPTV network. We ask Kieran Maguire, football finance expert at Liverpool University, what's going on? And with the strain of working during a pandemic taking its toll on the world's workers, Monica Miller has been talking to some people who have turned to new - and sometimes unconventional - methods to manage their stress.
