Newsnight accused of selectively editing same Trump Capitol riots speech as Panorama The Telegraph said it had found an edition of Newsnight from 2022 which contained a splicing together of the speech in a similar way. It did not appear that the edit alerted viewers to the cut. The Newsnight edit spliced together a section of Trump’s speech on the day of the riots, in January 2021, in which he urged supporters to walk to the Capitol building, with a later segment of the address in which he urged them to “fight like hell”. A former White House chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, criticised the BBC on air at the time for splicing together the footage. “Your video actually spliced together the presentation,” he said. “That line about ‘and we fight and fight like hell’ is actually later in the speech.” A BBC spokesperson said: “The BBC holds itself to the highest editorial standards. This matter has been brought to our attention and we are now looking into it.” https://www.theguardian.com/media/2025/nov/13/newsnight-accused-of-selectively-editing-same-trump-capitol-riots-speech-as-panorama
