BBC Faces Journalistic Integrity Questions: Leaked Memo Alleges Trump Speech EditingThe BBC is under fire for alleged journalistic bias, following reports of selective editing in a Panorama documentary about former US President Donald Trump. A leaked memo suggests the BBC edited two parts of Trumps speech, making it seem like he encouraged the Capitol Hill riots. The original speech had these sections more than fifty minutes apart, with the fight like hell comment originally made in a different context. BBC chair Samir Shah is expected to respond to the Culture, Media and Sport Committee, and the BBC may issue an apology. Lisa Nandy, UKs Culture Secretary, also raised concerns about the BBCs inconsistent language and individual journalists decisions. The BBC recently upheld twenty impartiality complaints regarding a presenter altering a script on air.
