The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) is facing a significant crisis as two of its top executives have resigned following allegations of impartiality breaches and biased reporting. Director-General Tim Davie and Deborah Turness, chief executive of the news division, have both stepped down. This dramatic development stems from a leaked internal memo that revealed the BBC had misleadingly edited a speech by former US President Donald Trump. The edited footage appeared to falsely suggest Trump was directly inciting violence on January 6, 2021, a claim that has severely damaged the broadcaster’s reputation.
