The BBC's outgoing director general, Tim Davie, urged staff to "fight" for journalism amidst a threat from Donald Trump to sue the broadcaster for $1 billion over a misleading edit in a documentary.

• Trump's lawyers are demanding "appropriate compensation" by Friday or face a lawsuit over an edit that implied he directly urged "violent action" before the US Capitol assault in 2021.
• The BBC's outgoing director general, Tim Davie, and BBC News CEO Deborah Turness resigned over the controversy, with Davie acknowledging "mistakes" were made.
• The crisis has exposed internal divisions within the BBC, including concerns about bias in its coverage of the Gaza war and trans issues, as highlighted in a memo by former advisor Michael Prescott.
