WHEN Will Trump’s War on the Media END?!

Mar 10, 2026
Donald Trump has told Fox News he has an "obligation" to sue the BBC - claiming the broadcaster "defrauded the public" in the way a Panorama episode misleadingly edited a clip of his January 6th speech. The dispute has made it on to Joe Rogan's podcast, and the BBC is being hauled into the 'fake news' category by MAGA commentators. How serious is President Trump in his threats? And could he bankrupt the BBC? Jon and Emily speak to Andrew Weissmann, law professor and former FBI general counsel. #trump #donaldtrump #potus #bbc #bbcdirectorgeneral #bbcnews #bbcpanorama #media #news #lawsuit #Podcast #UKPodcast #PoliticsPodcast #News #Politics #NewsAgents #EmilyMaitlis #JonSopel #LewisGoodall 0:00 — “Taxpayers funding the president?” 3:23 — Panorama edit + January 6 “whitewash” 6:45 — The $1B threat & BBC’s dilemma 10:08 — US fallout: Rogan clip & media attacks 13:30 — GB News interview: Trump lawyer’s warning 16:53 — Why sue in Florida?
