Trump filed a $5 billion lawsuit against the BBC

US President Donald Trump filed a defamation lawsuit against the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) on Monday (December 15), accusing it of misleading editing of his speech clips.

Reuters reported that according to the lawsuit documents, Trump demanded that the BBC pay at least 5 billion US dollars in compensation.

The documentary "Trump: A Second Chance?" aired by the BBC a week before the US presidential election last year Due to misleading editing and splicing of Trump's speech clips, it seems that Trump is inciting his supporters to create a riot.

BBC Chief Executive David and press Director Tenes have resigned over the incident, and BBC Chairman Samir Shah has also apologized for it.

Samir Shah wrote to British MPS on November 10, saying that the BBC acknowledged that the documentary's editing of Trump's speech "does indeed give the impression of a direct call for violent action." The BBC apologized for this misjudgment and will reform its internal supervision mechanism, but it denied that there was systemic bias in its reports.
