“BBC director general Tim Davie and News CEO Deborah Turness resign over Trump documentary edit”, reports the BBC about itself:
BBC director general Tim Davie and CEO of News Deborah Turness resign over Trump documentary edit
It comes after the Telegraph published details of a leaked internal BBC memo suggesting Panorama edited two parts of Trump’s speech together so he appeared to explicitly encourage the Capitol Hill riots of January 2021
In a statement, Davie says “there have been some mistakes made and as director general I have to take ultimate responsibility”
I used the tag “Deleted by the Woke Media” because fifty-four minutes of Trump’s speech on January 6th 2021 were deleted by the Woke BBC, and the trailing ends of the tape spliced together to make it appear as if he had said an inflammatory sentence he never said.
Remember the names of those public figures, especially journalists, who say that this was acceptable behaviour by the BBC because it was done to Trump. These people think lying is acceptable. Assume they are lying to you; assume they would lie about you.
The risk for the BBC is of course a defamation lawsuit for hundreds of millions of US dollars in a US court, with the malice element presumably being highly likely to be established as it is difficult to see, at least to me, how this could have been an honest oversight, YMMV. And with that the discovery and deposition issues.
Will this cause the government to question the need for a BBC licence fee? No more than the lack of a rapture put off those various 19th Century sects from updating their predictions of the Second Coming.
Make the announcements on a dark Sunday evening and hope nobody makes a fuss?
I am proud that the BBC remains the most trusted news brand globally.
Despite the inevitable issues and challenges, our journalism and quality content continues to be admired as a gold standard.
STFU
While mistakes have been made, I want to be absolutely clear recent allegations that BBC News is institutionally biased are wrong.
Together we have bucked the global trend, to grow trust in BBC News.
The previous extracts are from Tim Davie, these are Deborah Turness.
Both come across like a Scooby Doo villain, “We’d have got away with it if it wasn’t for you pesky kids”.
Get the popcorn for Trump’s lawsuit for libel.
Would he go after them in a US or UK court?
Meanwhile, is it hoping too much that this will also be acted on?
