GMB’s Susanna Reid and Richard Madeley clash live on air over BBC Trump row

Good Morning Britain presenters Susanna Reid and Richard Madeley clashed live on air over the Tim Davie BBC Trump edit row. The BBC director-general and head CEO of BBC News Deborah Turness resigned on Sunday over accusations the Panorama documentary Trump: A Second Chance? misled viewers by editing a speech the US president gave on January 6 2021. Discussing the ongoing row on the ITV breakfast show on Monday (10 November), Reid, who previously worked for BBC Breakfast, said: “My defence is not of the documentary. My defence is of the BBC. “ She added: “But the director general going over a misleading edit on Panorama, I find extraordinary.” Madeley jumped in and said: “It's more than a misleading edit. This is the President of the United States being grievously misrepresented by the flagship documentary of the BBC.”
