The British Broadcasting Corporation is facing a fresh allegation that it spliced together President Donald Trump's Jan. 6, 2021, speech to make it appear he issued a more explicit call for violence ahead of the unrest at the Capitol that day.
The state-owned broadcaster already is reeling from the resignations of its director-general, Tim Davie, and BBC News chief Deborah Turness, after the same speech was spliced in a "Panorama" episode that aired last year.
Footage edited for an episode of "Newsnight" in 2022 made it appear Trump was encouraging his supporters to riot at the Capitol, The Telegraph reported Thursday. The edit was similar to a version aired on "Panorama."
The latest revelation surfaced after Trump's legal team reportedly sent a letter to the BBC giving it until Friday to retract the "Panorama" episode in which the excerpts appeared or face a lawsuit seeking at least $1 billion.
The letter also demanded an apology and that the BBC "appropriately compensate President Trump for the harm caused."
BBC Chair Samir Shah apologized for the editing of the footage, and a BBC spokesperson said the organization is reviewing the letter.
Mick Mulvaney, Trump's acting White House chief of staff who resigned after the events of Jan. 6, criticized the BBC on air at the time of the "Newsnight" broadcast for "splicing" the footage.
His concerns were ignored by anchor Kirsty Wark, according to The Telegraph.
A whistleblower told the outlet that concerns about the edited clip were raised during an editorial meeting the following morning but were dismissed.
The disclosure risks plunging the BBC further into crisis.

...to go after...
Itโs about foreign interference in our elections.
On an organized, global scale.
I see more money coming for the Trump Presidential Library.
Lyin’ bass turds of fiction.

I hope Trump goes through with his lawsuit against the BBC - they deserve it - and doesn’t settle for an apology - which they’ve already issued.
Trump didn't issue ANY call for violence.
I loathe "journalists".
Everyone: Please correct me if I am wrong.
I prefer the term presstitute.
But money is fungible, isn’t it...
From the AP:
“The BBC has apologized to U.S. President Donald Trump over a misleading edit in a Panorama documentary that spliced together parts of his January 6, 2021, speech, creating the impression he directly encouraged violent action at the Capitol.”
Thanks Galt, that connects Prog Marxist Democrats and USAID to Election Interference in American Presidential Elections!
You think that was bad? The BBC’s reporting of the Ukrainian losses was/ is far worse. Only a fool will believe our MSM, especially after the Covid vax hoax.
Do you trust the Presstitutes to accurately report and print any qualifiers the BBC used to non-apologize? (Or maybe leave them out?)
Thanks Delta, You are correct!
” Only a fool will believe our MSM, especially after the Covid vax hoax.”
Do you have Covid? It looks like it is on your mind.
Oh, it's not! The BBC and most other big-name news agencies do it all the time.
Tagline is STILL accurate.
Never took the deadly MRNA vax. I know to many that have died and been disabled by MRNA jabs.
The sad part? 75 percent of the US population bought into it. Us “ Purebloods” have peace of mind, MRNA spike proteins are a ticking time bomb.
“Never took the deadly MRNA vax.”
You sidestepped my question. So you have Covid.
