President Trump Sues BBC

Donald Trump has filed a defamation lawsuit against the BBC, seeking $5 billion in damages.

It's related to the selective editing of one of his speeches, which the BBC admits gave "the mistaken impression" he had "made a direct call for violent action" ahead of the storming of the US Capitol in 2021.
