Texas Standard For October 12, 2018
Turkey says it has tapes of the murder and torture of a Washington Post columnist, at the hands of the Saudis. How should the U.S. respond? The disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi is creating geopolitical ripples, as Turkey works with U.S. officials over the affair, and this morning, orders the release of a U.S. pastor detained there. And: Counting casualties in the wake of Hurricane Michael: after hurricanes Harvey and Maria, why the numbers don’t seem to add up. Also The week in politics with the Texas Tribune and much more. No matter where you are, it’s Texas Standard time.
