BBC总干事兼新闻CEO因特朗普演讲剪辑争议辞职

摘要

BBC总干事蒂姆·戴维和新闻CEO黛博拉·特纳斯因对前美国总统特朗普2021年演讲的剪辑引发批评而辞职。

BBC总干事蒂姆·戴维和新闻CEO黛博拉·特纳斯因对前美国总统特朗普2021年演讲的剪辑引发批评而辞职。争议集中在一部BBC纪录片中,该纪录片省略了特朗普部分言论,包括他呼吁和平示威的内容,导致被指控歪曲事实。

戴维在给员工的信中表示,五年任期结束后辞职“完全是我的决定”。他承认“确实犯了一些错误”,并强调了作为总干事的责任。特纳斯表示,争议已达到对她深爱的BBC造成损害的地步。她坚称“责任由我承担”,并否认BBC新闻存在体制性偏见的指控。

继前标准与指南顾问迈克尔·普雷斯科特发布一份批评BBC跨性别议题报道及其阿拉伯语服务涉嫌反以色列偏见的报告后,BBC面临更加严厉的审视。

前总统特朗普回应此事,指责BBC试图影响总统选举,称这是“对民主的可怕打击!”辞职事件引发了对BBC文化改革的呼声,而工党政府则强调该机构对民主的重要性,并承诺支持其未来在英国的角色。
