Trump vs the BBC

U.S. President Donald Trump has announced plans to sue the BBC for up to $AU7.5 billion. It comes after the British broadcaster apologised to Trump over an allegedly misleading edit of a speech he gave on 6 January  2021 – the day of the deadly Washington insurrection. However, the BBC has rejected compensation claims from Trump’s lawyers. Today, we’ll explain the speech edit in question, the fallout, and whether Trump is likely to succeed in his action against the broadcaster.
