It's 'unlikely' Trump will win BBC defamation case | The News Agents on LBC
Donald Trump has filed a $10 billion (£8.98 billion) lawsuit against the BBC in Florida, accusing the broadcaster of defamation over 'doctored' speech footage on an edition of Panorama.
Trump's advocates have argued that the editing of the speech made him look as though he encouraged the Capitol riot which took place shortly after.
He claimed without basis that the BBC used "AI or something" to "put words in his mouth".
The President has also been under fire following his comments made about Hollywood director Rob Reiner and the circumstances surrounding his death.
Trump launched a jaw-dropping attack on Truth Social, blaming Reiner's murder on his "crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME".
