‘This is not a leaving speech’: Tim Davie rallies a shaken BBC as he prepares to step down

BBC Director General Tim Davie urged staff to defend their journalism following a $1 billion lawsuit threat from Donald Trump over a Panorama program. Acknowledging an “editorial breach” in the Trump speech edit, Davie, who resigned Sunday, expressed pride in the BBC’s work and confidence in its future despite challenges. He emphasized an “orderly transition” for his successor.
