Trump is suing the BBC for Ten Billion USD.

Trump wanted it. Simpler for the BBC to offer it than not. He also demanded recompense or else he would sue. Guess what, they told him to shove it.
So they partially, did what he wanted in the hope it would be enough, when they actually felt they had done nothing wrong. :LOL:

I think any sane person would see they held their hands up to having given "the mistaken impression that President Trump had made a direct call for violent action".
 
Depends what you mean by 'wrong'?
did they or did they not:

Splice together two entirely separate parts of President Trump’s speech on January 6, 2021? Yes or No

Did they depict President Trump telling supporters: “We’re going to walk down to the Capitol and I’ll be there with you. And we fight. We fight like hell and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.”? yes or no

Is it true that he never uttered this sequence of words? yes or no

did they omit President Trump stating, less than one minute after urging supporters to cheer for their senators and congressmen, “I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heardyes or no

I've highlighted the correct answer for you.

That seems to be the gist of what the claimant suggests the beeb did wrong.

What do you mean, 'wrong'? Upsetting Tump is something people do daily, if they are not fawning over the fat orange rapist. I don't know what you mean by wrong? The BBC did what all news outlets do i.e. edited a news article. It was misleading - yes. Wrong? I think not.

Hence the BBC telling the fat orange rapist to shove any monetary compensation where the sun will never shine. Good for them too.

Which has never been in question. The BBC admit it and apologised. The defamation case centres around whether or not malice' was involved.
