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.

Limeystan, pay Trump 2 Billion, disband the BBC, Jail those responsible, or have the US Military do it for you.
The world’s greatest fiction comes out of BBC.
I’m surprised it’s only twice this happened, I bet people are combing thru BBC archives looking for more examples of them doctoring footage to make Trump and others they don’t like to look bad.
Kick the BBC and Brit citizens out of this country. Recall our ambassador and remove our military personnel from their wretched country F the UK.
Goebbels had nothing on these guys.
A good start. GREAT comments BUMP!

This is fantastic!
President Trump went full West Coast and dropped a rap video so effective the BBC panic-bought traffic cones and declared martial law in Salford.
Snoop Dogg was reportedly found in Morrisons muttering โheโs the one.โ
Itโs BBC BILLION
Deadline day is here!
The BBC is just a symptom, leftist journalists are the disease.

Crap..............................
Actual Winston Smiths and the Ministry of Truth: the BBC.
The French and English took the novels The Camp of The Saints and Nineteen Eighty-four as primers, not warnings.
Now one is a virtual police state, once the birthplace of liberal thought; while the other has become a 3rd world dumping ground, once the City of Light.
Fully Agree!
I have two words for the Beeb..
Tick tock...
I agree, ... a couple of times I have written: "Nineteen Eighty-four is a warning, not an installation manual".
Get a load of this. Accidents, my arse.

More, reluctantly undoubtedly, at the above.
SVT is Sweden’s public broadcasting channel.
Thanks again, Mewzilla!
Sweden’s largest daily...
Guess what’s news.
No mention of what SVT got up to.
No, it’s Trump and Epstein.
None of this bleep is a coinkydink.
I hope the President determines that it will be in the national interest to after these expletives-deleted.
Because that will be his criterion.
This isn’t about him.
It’s about foreign interference in our elections.
On an organized, global scale.
If you do decide to pursue it, Mr. President, please add another one to the list.
