 BBC DG, news CEO resign over Trump documentary edit


Tim Davie, director general of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC); and Deborah Turness, CEO of BBC News; have both resigned from their roles.


They tendered their resignations after the news corporation came under fire for editing a documentary involving US President Donald Trump.


Last Monday, The Telegraph published an exclusive report that showed how the edited clip made Trump appear to encourage the 2021 Capitol Hill riot.
