The BBC is seeking to dismiss Donald Trump's $10 billion defamation lawsuit, arguing a Florida court lacks jurisdiction as the documentary was not aired there. Trump sued over an edited speech segment that he claims falsely suggested he called for violence before the Jan. 6 Capitol attack. The BBC acknowledged a "misleading edit" but rejects defamation claims, asserting Trump cannot prove "actual malice" or significant damages, especially since he was re-elected after the documentary aired.
