About this episode
P.M. Edition for Aug. 10. The FDA has laid out new rules intended to make the food system more transparent, part of an overhaul promised by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. WSJ reporter Liz Essley Whyte discusses how the new rules would work and why guidelines for ultraprocessed foods didn’t come today. Plus, as Iran strengthens its demands in negotiations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, Gulf states have begun accepting a new reality: that Tehran will control the strait for the foreseeable future. We hear from WSJ Middle East correspondent Benoit Faucon about what they are doing about it. And more than 70 people have been killed in a 7.4 magnitude earthquake in Colombia. Alex Ossola hosts.
