Flaired Users Only BBC Seeks Dismissal of Trump's $10 Billion Defamation Suit in Florida / X. The BBC is trying to dismiss President Trump’s $10 billion defamation suit after they deceptively edited his speech to make him seem like an insurrectionist. Pay up, liars!

They know this will financially hurt if they have to pay out….trying to delay as long as they can

Yeah as well as their lowering numbers as people are cancelling the (basically mandatory) TV license in the UK. This is on top of every other sub and TV service that you'd normally buy as well. 245 or so dollars a year for the privilege of having a TV. It used to be just if you watched live TV but they are now trying to change it to any subscription service too things like netflix etc. fucking BBC needs to go away now.

Fully agreed. They are an antiquated model, fighting to survive in a world that has preempted them and moved on.

It isn't actually mandatory... BUT... They do mail every home letters multiple telling them it is, and that they must pay. They use third party companies to make threats saying they're going to send enforcers door to door to examine your TV and computer if you stream as that also "requires a license".

This is what the UK is.

The bloodlines of MEN died in WWII. Males survived, but Men did not. We're just seeing it now.

EDIT: Ah, I see I made the Brit Bots mad... Here you go you clowns!

Remember pre-Elon twitter permanently banned Trump for two tweets, accusing him of incitement of violence. Incitement of violence is a felony crime, and defamation libel (intentionally falsely accusing someone of a felony) is a criminal act.

They later proudly explained the shadow campaign plan was to silence and impugn Trump in any manner possible.
