Misleading headline. There was this section in there, too.
Murray was delivering a staunch defence of the BBC although he did note that the Trump scandal, which has seen the Director General (DG) and news chief resign and the POTUS threaten $1B legal action, “reminds us of the responsibility the BBC has to uphold editorial standards.”
Also the “they” part likely refers to people in power only. The only thing Fox News is made for in the UK is materials for comedy.
Fox News isn’t even available in the UK. It was on Sky, years ago, but was removed in 2017.
“Bill had just written a piece which said this was a program that was largely pro-Trump, it was largely an attempt to explain Trump and why it seemed likely that he was going to win that election,” said Rusbridger, who edited the left-leaning Guardian for two decades. “It wasn’t a hatchet job on Trump. It was a 12-second edit that was a way of jumping to a new sequence. That doesn’t seem to me like an ideological attack on the right, it feels to me like a clumsy edit, but those are the standards to which BBC journalism are now held.”
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chief Brendan Carr has written to outgoing director general Tim Davie and the chief executives at US broadcasters NPR and PBS, whose member stations air some BBC content.
He accuses the BBC of “misleading and deceptive conduct”, with the offending doc – Trump: A Second Chance? – showing the President “voicing a sentence that, in fact, he never uttered”.
Lmao not quite in your juristiction
Well, “we’ll sue them next week”:
What makes him think he’s going to get billions of dollars? Does he think the BBC is made of money?
Trump wants all those License Fees, all $10 worth!

Some previous work
While Trump’s lawyers said the October 2024 Panorama titled Trump: A Second Chance? was available in the U.S. on BritBox, the documents dispute this. “Simply clicking on the link that plaintiff cites for this point shows it is not on BritBox,” the BBC lawyers are reported to have said.

Still one of the messiest sounding David Lowe themes though. I like the News at Seven theme far more.
Kirkwood announced this morning she would leave the BBC after first joining the broadcaster in 1998.
