The BBC edited a Donald Trump speech by making him appear to encourage the Capitol Hill riot



A Panorama programme, broadcast a week before the US election, “completely
misled” viewers by showing the president telling supporters he was going to
walk to the Capitol with them to “fight like hell”, when in fact he said he would
walk with them “to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard”.

The “mangled” footage was highlighted in a 19-page dossier on BBC bias,
which was compiled by a recent member of the corporation’s standards
committee and is now circulating in government departments.

The dossier said the programme made the US president “‘say’ things [he]
never actually said” by splicing together footage from the start of his speech
with something he said nearly an hour later.

It claimed senior executives and the BBC’s chairman had ignored and
dismissed a string of serious complaints raised by the corporation’s own
standards watchdog.

Donald Trump Jr, the president’s eldest son, accused the BBC of dishonesty
and “fake news”.

Nigel Huddleston, the shadow culture secretary, said: “These are extremely
concerning revelations that could seriously undermine the brand and
reputation of the BBC.
