Trump vs. the BBC
Episode description
President Trump is threatening the BBC with a $1 billion lawsuit over a documentary that allegedly misrepresented his January 6th speech. The controversy has already forced out the broadcaster's top two leaders and sparked its biggest crisis in decades. This week's On Assignment examines Trump's legal strategy against media outlets, the BBC's unique role in British society and what this means for press freedom on both sides of the Atlantic.
