News Meeting: Democrats showcase their wife guys and Starbucks boss is under fire

What should lead the news? Three journalists tell Giles Whittell what they think the top story should be and Giles has a message for the new Starbucks CEO.

In this episode they discuss why the coffee chain’s boss is being criticised, the vibe at the Democratic National Convention and what a death at Britain’s newest jail tells us about the prison’s crisis.
