The dispute between US tech entrepreneur Elon Musk and the public broadcaster ZDF is causing a major stir across Germany.
In its coverage of last week's anti-immigrant riots in Belfast, an edition of "ZDFheute live" said that Musk had called for "a migrant hunt" in his social media posts about Northern Ireland.
On Monday, Musk called ZDF's characterisation of his words a "terrible lie" and said he was pursuing legal action against the broadcaster, which has since removed the contested passage.
