I'm not about to go up against Joshua Rozenberg on legal analysis, but his assessment on Radio 4 right now seems a bit odd. First, BBC player *isn't* available in Florida, is it? That's why you need a vpn to watch the Beeb there.

“Trump has managed to cow huge swathes of America’s institutional media, despite the supposed protections the First Amendment offers. Thanks to his friendly relationship with tech CEOs, he has huge sway over online media, too. The bully pulpit has never been more powerful than under Trump.”
Win or lose, Trump's $1bn lawsuit would be a disaster for the BBC
Trump does not want fair and independent media. He wants cheerleaders

Should Gibb be sacked? yes, obviously. He's an abomination of basic journalistic standards. His GB News channel spreads conspiracy theory & disinformation. His Jewish Chronicle newspaper spreads invented stories. He is plainly trying to undermine the BBC so it's as bad as everything else he touches.
