The BBC had been accused of misleading viewers on Donald Trump’s US Capitol speech more than two years before the controversial Panorama edit aired, it has been reported.
In an episode broadcast in June 2022, BBC Newsnight reportedly played an edit of the US president’s speech which was similar to the one used in a Panorama programme in October 2024 – both of which made it appear as if he was explicitly urging people to attack the Capitol on January 6 2021.
