BBC boss warns network faces existential crisis amid Trump’s crushing lawsuit [3oWlLCLRvhH]
The BBC’s outgoing director-general has warned the broadcaster is on a “knife-edge” amid a deepening crisis of trust and financial pressure. Tim Davie admitted the once-dominant network faces a “brutal” outlook as audiences decline and confidence in legacy media erodes. "Today, the BBC is strong, but it is on a knife-edge," Davie said. The warning comes as US President Donald Trump pursues a $10 billion lawsuit against the BBC over a documentary that edited his January 6 speech. Davie announced he would resign in November over the documentary scandal.
