Camilla Tominey lifts lid on explosive BBC exposé after they doctored Donald Trump speech a SECOND time: 'Preposterous!'

Camilla revealed: "This Newsnight episode of June 9 2022 was flagged to us by somebody called David Chaudoir, who used to work as a graphic designer on the show, and he said that he felt there was something eerily familiar about the way that Panorama had spliced the clip of the speech for that documentary that they put out in October last year.

"We then sort of interrogated that line of thinking and he said 'I worked on that episode, it was presented by Kirsty Wark, and it featured a Republican calling out the splicing live on-air'."

Noting how the edit is "slightly different" to the Panorama programme which landed the BBC in its latest scandal, Ms Tominey added: "You can see how the clip has been edited. It's not exactly the same edit as Panorama, but you still get this splicing between 'we will march' and 'we will fight like hell', which is presented seamlessly as if it hasn't been edited, and then the imagery cuts to scenes of people fighting.

"And the fact that Mick Mulvaney calls it out live on-air, even though he is not, at that point, a Trump supporter. He says to Kirsty Wark, 'hang on, that clip's not quite right'."

Telling GB News that her whistleblower claimed concerns about the edit were "ignored", Ms Tominey said: "David, our whistleblower, says that he vividly remembers being in an editorial meeting the next morning where somebody, one of the producers said 'what happened with that clip? That was a bit embarrassing, Mark Mulvaney called it out live on air'.

"Concerns were raised, according to Mr. Chaudoir, and quickly dismissed."

Criticising the BBC for missing the deadline to respond to the Telegraph's exposé, Camilla stated: "We have, at the Telegraph, put all of this to the BBC and we are awaiting a response. So we put in our inquiry at noon, we gave them a deadline of four, and they're still ruminating."

Assessing the two edits side by side, host Martin Daubney said: "What you almost see there is version one, if you like, was not quite as out there, but the BBC kind of got a taste for it. Version two, they trimmed it back further to make the same point, but with more gravity."

Camillaresponded: "Let's be generous to Newsnight, they did include that line about congressmen and women that was absent from the Panorama edit.

"Obviously, this edit has taken place in the June of 2022, the Panorama documentary goes out on the 28th of October 2024, but I think the key critical aspect of this story and what makes it in a way slightly worse than Panorama are two different distinctions."

She explained: "First of all, it's called out live on air by somebody who is a Trump critic, not a Trump supporter, so it's already been flagged to senior editorial staff at the corporation that something's not quite right there. Nevertheless, footage is edited in a similar way for Panorama."

Criticising those claiming that the investigation is a "right-wing plot" against the BBC, Camilla concluded: "Obviously, The Telegraph and those who support our exposé of concerns about a lack of impartiality at the national broadcaster have been accused of orchestrating a right wing plot against the BBC.

"I think it's absolutely preposterous to blame good journalists for pointing out bad journalism. This can't be a right-wing plot, can it? If the BBC had treated the same speech in the same way on two different occasions to splice it, to make it look as if march on the capital and fight like hell happened seamlessly, no it didn't, he didn't do that, he said it 54 minutes apart. Those two statements."

A spokesman for Mr Trump's legal team told GB News: "It is now clear that BBC engaged in a pattern of defamation against President Trump by intentionally and deceitfully editing his historic speech in order to try and interfere in the Presidential Election.

"President Trump will continue to hold accountable those who traffic in lies, deception, and fake news."

A BBC spokesperson said: "The BBC holds itself to the highest editorial standards. This matter has been brought to our attention and we are now looking into it."
