BBC, Trump
Digest more
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday he would likely soon file a lawsuit against Britain's BBC over its editing of a speech he made in 2021 on the day his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol.
BBC might contend that Trump is a "libel-proof plaintiff" who tarnished his reputation so badly that the alleged defamation wouldn't make it any worse.
The British broadcaster apologized to Trump last month, calling the edit an "error of judgment," but denies its reporting was defamatory.
