Judge limits BBC from relitigating Jan 6 in Trump lawsuit over misleading documentary edit

A federal judge ruled that the BBC cannot relitigate the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot in President Donald Trump's $10 billion defamation lawsuit, which challenges the BBC's editing of a 2024 'Panorama' documentary. The documentary, criticized for omitting context from Trump's speech, made it appear he told supporters to 'fight like hell' at the Capitol, though the judge allowed the BBC to address public understanding of the speech.
