When I tried watching BBC news during a trip to the UK, it was a good 5 minutes before I realized it was on the level and not a comedy program poking fun at left-wing kooks. That was over 20 years ago. Since then, this coercively funded radical left propaganda platform has crossed the line from spinning the news to creating fictional news.

A cherished belief among leftists is that Trump tried to overthrow the US government on 1/6/2021. To prop up this fantasy, the BBC excreted the deceptively edited video below, intended to convince the gullible that Trump led an attempted violent insurrection:

Unlike past Republicans, Trump does not take crap like this lying down:

Trump has put the BBC ‘on notice’ that he plans to sue them for $1billion (£760million) after they doctored his speech and broadcast it on Panorama…

‘Due to their salacious nature, the fabricated statements that were aired by the BBC have been widely disseminated throughout various digital mediums, which have reached tens of millions of people worldwide. Consequently, the BBC has caused President Trump to suffer overwhelming financial and reputational harm.’

The entire country was harmed. Lies like the BBC tells undermine the legitimacy of the Trump Administration and the federal government in general, pushing the USA toward political instability.

Trump’s reasonable demands:

By close of business on Friday the BBC must issue a full and fair retraction, provide an apology and ‘appropriately compensate President Trump for the harm caused’.

Keir Starmer, whose anti-British regime the BBC props up, defends it by denying it is “institutionally biased” despite its over-the-top push journalism against Trump and Israel and in favor of transgenderism, Hamas, and the Great Replacement.

Though the scandal has forced Director-General Tim Davie and CEO of BBC News and Current Affairs Deborah Turness to resign, and BBC Chairman Samir Shah has apologized for an “error of judgment,” the Beeb’s liberal elite arrogance endures:

Davie struck a defiant tone, calling for staff to ‘stand up for our journalism’ in the face of a billion-dollar lawsuit. And lifelong BBC employee Simpson ridiculed the threat sent by lawyers on behalf of the US President. …

Jonathan Dimbleby, a former BBC journalist and long-time collaborator with the broadcaster, also defended it in an interview with LBC on Monday in which he compared Donald Trump to Vladimir Putin.

Dimbleby also compared Netanyahu to Putin. Apparently it’s okay to tell lies about people who are as bad as Putin.

Taxpayers should not be forced to fund an institution as nefarious as the BBC. As Americans learned from PBS/NPR, government media produces propaganda that does not serve the interests of the general public. The free market provides more reliable sources of information without immoral coercion.
