The president of the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), Samir Shah, apologized for a 'error of judgment' in a documentary by the corporation. The BBC's Director-General, Tim Davie, and the Director of News, Deborah Turness, resigned following a chain of criticism over a documentary that allegedly deceived viewers by editing statements from US President Donald Trump. This was announced by the British media on Sunday. The controversy centered on the Panorama documentary titled 'Trump: A Second Chance?'. The program was criticized for combining fragments of Trump's speech from January 6, 2021, which allegedly gave the misleading impression that he had urged his followers to march to the US Capitol and 'fight with all their might'. The Telegraph newspaper reported on November 3 that a leaked internal memo from Michael Prescott, a former external independent advisor to the BBC's Editorial Standards Committee, had pointed out the issue.
