URGENT: Trump Sues BBC Over Alleged Defamation in Panorama Speech Edit

Breaking News: Trump Sues BBC Over Alleged Defamation in Panorama Speech Edit US President Donald Trump has filed a multi-billion-dollar defamation lawsuit against the BBC over an edit of his 6 January 2021 speech in a Panorama documentary. The lawsuit, filed in Florida, accuses the BBC of defamation and violating a trade practices law, seeking $5 billion in damages on each claim. The BBC has apologized to Trump but rejected his demands for compensation, stating there is no basis for a defamation claim. Trump's legal team claims the BBC intentionally, maliciously, and deceptively doctoring his speech. The controversy centers around Trump's 6 January 2021 speech, where he told a crowd, "We're going to walk down to the Capitol, and we're going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women." The BBC documentary edited the speech, which Trump claims changed the meaning. This is the latest development in a long-standing feud between Trump and the BBC, with Trump announcing plans to sue the broadcaster last month. The BBC has not yet responded to the lawsuit, and it remains to be seen how this case will unfold. This is a developing story, and we will provide updates as more information becomes available.
