BBC Issues a Humiliating Apology to Trump for Deliberately Biased Edit of His J6 Speech
Rick Moran | 11:07 AM on November 14, 2025
     
They didn't exactly crawl on all fours and kiss the president's feet, but whatever the bureaucratic equivalent of a humiliating mea culpa might be, the BBC was compelled to do so.
 
Donald Trump's threat to sue the BBC for $1 billion for defamation likely didn't influence their deliberations about what to say to the American president after they altered, twisted, and distorted his Jan. 6, 2021, speech to try to make it appear that Trump was urging his followers to storm the Capitol building.

The BBC said that the deliberately false edit had given "the mistaken impression that President Trump had made a direct call for violent action."

"We accept that our edit unintentionally created the impression that we were showing a single continuous section of the speech, rather than excerpts from different points in the speech, and that this gave the mistaken impression that President Trump had made a direct call for violent action," the apology said.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

They didn’t apologize for their intentionally malicious actions; they “apologized” because people misunderstood what they said:

There was no “unintentionally” about it.  They intended people to come away with that perception.

In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
�More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.�-Woody Allen

Which is worse?

BBC splicing up Trump's J6 speech

or

CBS internationally editing Kameluh's interview to help her win the election?

I vote for the latter.
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.
