| I am afraid your defence of 'Panorama' is unconvincing. If I make a speech where I begin by saying 'I love Arsenal' and half an hour later I end by saying ,'A rogue motorist killed my dog' and a tv company splices together the two parts of my speech so that I appear to be saying "I ... killed my dog', then, yes, I spoke all the words, but the impression would be entirely misleading. In any case this discussion is irrelevant given that the BBC has already admitted libelling Trump and misleading its viewers. The only question now is how far the apology and retraction should go. Trump apparently wants the BBC to withdraw the whole programme. I am not sure I agree with that. Clearly the BBC should apologise profusely and eliminate the part which misrepresented the President but I don't think the BBC should withdraw an hour long programme just because a foreign leader is offended by legitimate criticism. But I suspect that pressure from Downing St may force the BBC to comply. I am not satisfied, however, with the level of contrition shown by the BBC: 1) The Chairman's insistence that there was no intention to mislead the viewers is clearly untrue. You don't splice two unrelated clips by accident. 2) I don't understand why, Jonathan Munro (Deborah Turness' deputy) is still in a job given that he defended the programme back in May describing the splice as 'normal oractice'. 3) The BBC have still not shown the part of Trump's speech in which he urges his supporters to demonstrate 'patriotically and peacefully'. |
