DEVELOPING: Trump Threatens $1B Lawsuit Against BBC Over Panorama Edit

Breaking News: Trump Threatens $1B Lawsuit Against BBC Over Panorama Edit US President Donald Trump has announced plans to sue the BBC for between $1.1 billion and $5 billion over the editing of his 6 January 2021 speech in a Panorama documentary. Trump made the statement on board Air Force One on Friday evening. The BBC apologized for the edit, which they said unintentionally gave the impression that Trump called for violent action. However, the corporation refused to pay financial compensation, prompting Trump's threat of a lawsuit. The dispute began when Trump's lawyers demanded a retraction, apology, and compensation from the BBC, threatening a $1 billion lawsuit unless their demands were met. Trump claims the BBC "cheated" by altering the words from his speech. The BBC has maintained that they will not broadcast the edited documentary again. Trump plans to take legal action "sometime next week." This is a developing story, and we will provide updates as more information becomes available.
