	Description:		The Golden Globes has been in the news for all the wrong reasons, following exposés of The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, a group of 87 international journalists who vote on the awards; we hear from KJ Matthews, an entertainment reporter based in Los Angeles. The World Trade Organisation has a new boss in charge from Monday but press coverage of Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala has been criticised for being sexist and racist . We hear from Ugandan Economist Emmanuel Nshakira Rukundo who is currently at the University of Bonn in Germany. Plus we pick over the $1.9 trillion US stimulus package with the help of economist Michael Hughes. And the UN is appealing for $4bn for Yemen, warning that the country is on the verge of the worst famine the world has seen for decades; we hear from Elana DeLozier, a fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.
