from WSJ What’s News · host The Wall Street Journal

P.M. Edition for Sept. 2. A federal judge today decided that Google doesn’t have to break up its online advertising business, rejecting a request from the Justice Department. Journal reporter Dave Michaels discusses why the decision is such a big win for Google, and a loss for the antimonopoly movement. Plus, Chevron is one of several energy companies to invest in Venezuela’s oil fields, a big win for the Trump administration. And if you’ve been weighing whether to sign up for one of those airport-security line-cutting programs like TSA PreCheck or Clear, travel columnist Dawn Gilbertson has got you covered with her favorite new option.
