The BBC will face a jury trial in Florida for allegedly defaming President Trump in its documentary "Trump: A Second Chance," which aired a week before the 2024 presidential election, a federal judge nominated by Trump ruled Tuesday.
"This may seem familiar," but the BBC's actions were far different than those of CNN and Dow Jones in Trump's unsuccessful defamation suits in Florida federal court and before the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Kuntz wrote.
While CNN's statements were deemed mere opinion and The Wall Street Journal was only accused of failing to "adequately investigate claims it reported," the BBC literally "spliced together" Trump's words from two different parts of his Jan. 6, 2021 speech, creating a statement that "Trump never said," Kuntz wrote.
Trump expressly implored his followers planning to march to the Capitol that day to protest the certification of the election to do so "peacefully," less than a minute after his "fight like hell" comment that the BBC spliced together as the end of a couplet that started with the march to the Capitol, Kuntz wrote.
The U.K network admitted "it had edited a video to make it appear as though President Trump made a statement he never made," chose to release it right before 2024 election, and "even emailed U.S. and Florida based commenters with instructions to on [sic] how to view the documentary," the judge said.

It’s amazing to think about how many people allow their opinions to be formed by Fake News.
This is part of the reason I always say the anti-Trumpers don’t really know why they don’t like him.
they don’t like him because they’re globalists who hate America
Bingo.
BBC will lose a Florida jury trial.
