BBC should 'continue to resist' Trump legal action
January 09, 2026
|Western Mail
THE BBC should “continue to resist” a 10 billion dollar legal action by Donald Trump, peers have said.
Lord Fowler, a former Lord Speaker, said the BBC’s Panorama pro-gramme was “rightly criticised” for the editing on a story about the US president, but hit out at Mr Trump using it as the basis for challenging all the broadcaster's reporting.
The programme faced criticism late last year over an episode broadcast in 2024, for giving the impression the president had encouraged supporters to storm the Capitol.
Mr Trump is seeking up to 10 billion dollars (£7.5 billion) in damages in response to the editing of the speech, with his lawyers claiming it was “false and defamatory”.
Lord Fowler, a crossbench peer who was a Times journalist and chairman of the Yorkshire Post, called on the BBC to fight the legal action.
