For Marketplace, Monday, July 11, 2011

Kai revisits China and Shanghai after five years, to see how things have changed. Meanwhile in the U.S., President Obama and Speaker John Boehner had dueling news conferences on the debt talks. Americans are using credit as a way to get through this economy, thanks to stagnant wages. In Europe, debt watchers are turning toward Italy. Rupert Murdoch makes a clever move in his bid for a television network. And Major League Baseball tries to go green. Here are the songs we played:

  • The Matador Has Fallen – Danger MouseBuy
  • Simply Put – Georgia Anne MuldrowBuy
  • Anything New – BibioBuy
  • Dragon Tiger Panacea – New PantsBuy
