A day of sharply different headlines spans corporate accountability, diplomacy and familiar public faces. Johnson & Johnson has moved to draw a line under years of litigation by proposing up to $5.5 billion to settle claims that its talc products caused ovarian cancer, though the deal still depends on overwhelming claimant approval. In Washington, Volodymyr Zelenskyy met Donald Trump at the White House ahead of Senator Lindsey Graham’s funeral, underscoring the high-stakes mix of remembrance, war diplomacy and Ukraine’s continuing push for stronger US support. In Britain, broadcaster Naga Munchetty announced she will leave BBC Breakfast after 17 years for Radio 5 Live, marking a notable shift in the BBC’s morning lineup. Elsewhere, two very different court stories saw Richard Hammond fined after two speeding offences in quick succession, while Jack Shepherd admitted assaulting a woman with barbecue tongs after his release from prison.
