Description

Former President Donald Trump is planning to sue the BBC for up to $5 billion over an edited speech that misrepresented his January 6th, 2021 remarks. The BBC apologized for the editing, which suggested Trump called for violent action. Trumps planned phone call with UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson was canceled, and the leader of the opposition party emphasized the importance of an independent BBC. The US broadcast regulator chief inquired about the programs distribution in the US, and one of Trumps libel lawyers met with Downing Street officials.
