Donald Trump is facing a new problem in his $10 billion lawsuit against the BBC after a federal judge questioned whether his legal team had properly handed over evidence, according to The Guardian. The case centers on a BBC Panorama documentary that edited together two comments Trump made nearly an hour apart during his January 6, 2021, speech before the Capitol riot.
The BBC has acknowledged that the edit was misleading, but Trump has also claimed the broadcaster used artificial intelligence to insert words into his speech, an allegation the source report describes as false. Trump’s lawsuit argues that the broadcast damaged him under Florida’s Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act, even though the documentary was not readily available to watch in the state.
