Texas Standard for January 4, 2017
A matter of life and death – the state’s attorney general suing the Food and Drug Administration over execution drugs. And: Just how open are the public’s records? With days to go before the launch of the next Texas legislative session, a bipartisan move to let in more sunshine. Also: Off the rail, but for how much longer? Sings of a shift in attitudes over how to get around one of the nation’s fastest growing cities. Plus: A few six shooters, and not so many cattle, but cowboy culture’s big in east Germany. The backstory of an unlikely cultural appropriation. Those stories and so much more today on the Texas Standard:
