- Donald Trump launched a scathing attack on the BBC, labelling it "corrupt, fraudulent news" and accusing it of using artificial intelligence to edit his speech.
- His comments follow the BBC's motion to dismiss his $10 billion (£7.5 billion) defamation lawsuit against the broadcaster.
- The lawsuit centres on a 2024 Panorama documentary, which was criticised for creating the impression that Trump incited supporters to storm the Capitol in 2021.
- BBC chairman Samir Shah previously apologised for an "error of judgment" regarding the documentary's editing, acknowledging it suggested a "direct call for violent action".
- Trump also criticised the BBC's reporting on the US war on Iran, calling it "so inaccurate" and "unbelievable".
