Trump files lawsuit over misleading editing in BBC documentary, seeking at least $10 billions in damages
BlockBeats News, December 16, according to Bloomberg, U.S. President Donald Trump has filed a lawsuit against the BBC over a misleading edit in a documentary last year, seeking at least $10 billion in damages. Trump claims that the edit gave the false impression that he directly incited violence during a speech before his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.
The lawsuit against the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) was filed on Monday in federal court in Miami. The complaint contains two allegations: one for defamation, and another accusing the BBC of violating Florida's trade practices law.
Trump is seeking at least $5 billion in damages for each allegation, as well as compensation for other related costs.
