Markets plunge around the world Thursday amid mounting fears of a global economic recession. Also, we get a report on the efforts of one Texas city to rebuild itself after a natural disaster and examine Turkey's efforts to boost its profile in the Middle East. Finally, the latest in our collaboration with the Economist Film Project and disaster aid sits at the center of a Congressional battle.
