Show Notes

BBC director general Tim Davie and CEO of News Deborah Turness have resigned over the way a documentary on Donald Trump was edited.

It comes after the Telegraph published details of a leaked internal BBC memo, suggesting Panorama edited two parts of Trump's speech together so he appeared to explicitly encourage the Capitol riots of January 2021.

UK correspondent Gavin Grey says it's been a 'difficult day' for the company, but Trump celebrated this outcome on Truth Social.
