LOADING ERROR LOADINGA BBC board member is the latest to resign from the broadcaster amid the backlash to a documentary that President Donald Trump plans to sue over. Advertisement“While the BBC sincerely regrets the manner in which the video clip was edited, we strongly disagree there is a basis for a defamation claim,” a spokesperson said. The BBC issued its statement after Trump’s lawyers demanded the broadcaster apologize, retract the documentary and provide him with compensation for the “overwhelming reputational and financial harm” the documentary allegedly caused him. Trump vowed to proceed with legal action after his demands were not met. “We’ll sue them for anywhere between $1 billion and $5 billion, probably sometime next week,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One last Friday.
