INTERVIEW: BBC is facing an orchestrated campaign to undercut public trust says analyst
The director for the International Centre for Journalists says the resignation of two senior figures at the BBC is a result of an "orchestrated campaign to undercut public trust" in the broadcaster. The head of the BBC, director-general Tim Davie and news CEO Deborah Turness both resigned after criticism of the broadcaster’s editing of a speech by U.S. President Donald Trump. Critics said the way the speech was edited for the BBC's flagship documentary program Panorama last year was misleading and cut out a section where Donald Trump said that he wanted supporters to demonstrate peacefully. Mr Trump has threatened legal action against the BBC over the way the speech he made was edited. Julie Posetti is a professor of journalism at City St. George's University of London and director for the International Centre for Journalists.
