BBC faces leadership crisis over Trump speech edit, bias claims

Tim Davie

(AF)

The resignation of BBC Director-General Tim Davie and news chief Deborah Turness over accusations of bias was welcomed by Trump, who said the way his speech had been edited for a documentary was an attempt to “step on the scales of a Presidential Election”.

BBC chairman Samir Shah apologised Monday for the broadcaster's “error of judgment” in editing the speech Trump delivered on January 6, 2021, before a crowd of his supporters stormed the Capitol in Washington.
