If you come for Donald J. Trump, you better not miss.
That’s a lesson the BBC just learned the hard way.
The Beeb went after Trump, slurring him with vicious lies.
It used its flagship current-affairs show to defame him as a fascistic monster who stirred up violence at the US Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
And the result of these outrageous libels has been not the fall of Trump, but the fall of the BBC.
The Beeb thought it could drag down the leader of the free world — but ended up dragging its own reputation into the gutter, burying itself in its own Trump-phobic BS.
It is hands-down the worst crisis Britain’s publicly funded broadcaster has ever faced.
On Sunday, Director-General Tim Davie and News CEO Deborah Turness both resigned, plunging the Beeb into mayhem.
They stepped down just days after an explosive 19-page dossier penned by a former member of the BBC’s own standards committee was leaked to a British newspaper.
Its diagnosis was stinging: The Beeb, it found, has become disgracefully biased, constantly letting its woke prejudices get in the way of truth-telling.
The memo flagged up the case of “Panorama,” the Beeb’s long-standing current-affairs show.
In November 2024, just days before the US presidential election, the program aired a shocking clip of Trump on Jan. 6 saying, “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol and I’ll be there with you and we fight. We fight like hell.”
Only one problem: Trump never said that. The BBC was lying.
It spliced together two entirely different remarks, made 54 minutes apart, to make it look like he was marshalling the mob into a frenzy of violence.
What Trump actually said was that people should march “peacefully and patriotically” to the Capitol and “make your voices heard”.
By deleting his “peacefully” comment, and replacing it with a comment...

The BBC has disgraced itself and sunk to the level of the American media.
The British invented racism.
-Andrew Young.
This might explain it. Doing things that are not right.
Trump should stir up the excrement by calling for them to give up the Falklands. Tit for tat.
And Britain has sunken to the level of a shiite-hole country.... my, my, my, how the once mighty have fallen.
The problem is deliberate deception and slander.
Goebbels had nothing on the BBC.
Trump’s going to put the blocks to the beeb just like he did CBS.
Mess with the bull, get the horns lefty limeys.
The BBC is an official arm of the government of the UK. They are our enemies and we need to treat them as such.
I wouldn’t take Andrew Young as an authority on anything. Racism probably dates back to Paleolithic times when it helped survival of your group if you were automatically suspicious of any other group you might encounter. The ancient Greeks were racist towards non-Greeks (whether they had similar skin color or not) and no doubt many earlier societies viewed any outsiders as lesser people than themselves.
They became our enemies in 1775. They have sometimes pretended to be our friends when they needed our help.
