The British public service broadcaster BBC is formally apologizing to US President Donald Trump for a heavily edited segment from Trump's speech on January 6, 2021. However, the BBC is rejecting Trump's claim for damages.

The issue concerns the editing of the speech that Trump gave and which was shown in the documentary “Panorama.” The editing, where two parts of the speech were cut together, gives the impression that the president directly calls for violence before the storming of the Capitol building.

The program was broadcast last year and was produced by an independent company.
