The dossier said the programme made the US president “‘say’ things [he] never actually said” by splicing together footage from the start of his speech with something he said nearly an hour later. and a bit later on in the article The BBC had spliced together three separate parts of Mr Trump’s speech into what appeared to be one fluent sentence. Thats’s pretty bad if true. We now have to doubt anything the BBC shows about Trump (or any other figure outside the mainstream) More on reddit.com

Revealed: How an edited Trump speech exposed BBC bias
Absolutely hilarious that one of UK's most awful right-wing propaganda rags, notorious for printing outright, verifiable lies on everything from covid to climate change to terrorism , is accusing the BBC of bias. Yet they'll happily accept cash from foreign governments including Russia and China to print pure propaganda pieces on their behalf. And what did they accuse the BBC of? Removing a 54 minute section of a Trump speech in which he clearly expresses his support of the J6 rioters that in no way changes the meaning of his words. I wonder if this terrible human feels even a little bit ashamed for lying through his teeth direct to camera for 5 minutes like that? More on reddit.com

Donald Trump v the BBC: key points of the president’s claim | BBC | The Guardian
2 weeks ago - Donald Trump has made good on his threat to file a lawsuit against the BBC over its editing of a speech he made. Here the Guardian examines some of the key passages in the claim. “As set forth in a damning and recently leaked BBC internal whistleblower document, the BBC intentionally used the Panorama documentary to maliciously, falsely, and defamatorily make it appear that President Trump explicitly called for violent action and rioting, and that he ‘said something he did not’.”

"They may have spliced together two sentences " Yikes, I understand you hate the guy, but to downplay what happend to this, is incredibly bias. Continue this thread ... A frivolous lawsuit - he has a case that the BBC doctored his words, but the programme wasn't broadcast in Florida which is an issue as he'll has to provide a few witnesses who saw the broadcast there (where the lawsuit has been filed) who said that they changed their vote from Trump to another candidate.
