A federal judge has allowed President Trump’s $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the BBC to move forward over misleading edits to his January 6, 2021, speech that made it appear he was directly encouraging supporters to march on the Capitol and fight. The BBC previously apologized for the editing but denied defamation. The judge noted that the remarks were actually delivered nearly 55 minutes apart, rejecting the BBC’s attempt to dismiss the lawsuit.
